I work with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, racial and cultural stressors, and questions of identity. My approach is warm, direct, and insightful, grounded in a decolonizing lens that honors your lived experience. I strive to create a therapeutic space that feels meaningful, affirming, and honest—where even the most difficult moments can become opportunities for deeper understanding. During times of betrayal, self-doubt, isolation, confusion, unmet expectations, or guilt, we can reflect together on both your inner world and the systems that shape your experiences.
My work is integrative and tailored to each individual. In sessions, we may draw from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) approaches to shift unhelpful thought patterns, psychodynamic frameworks to explore unconscious themes, Adlerian or DBT-informed tools to support daily change, and mindfulness practices to help process emotions and cultivate presence.
Together, we can address present concerns while building a path toward greater self-trust and self-mastery. My goal is to create a sacred, collaborative space where difficult emotions and patterns can be explored at a pace that feels right for you. There is also room here for laughter, joy, and lightness.
