I work best with individuals navigating anxiety, intersectional identity, and cultural or generational tension—often minority women and members of the LGBTQI+ community seeking a therapist who understands that nuance. They come to me feeling overwhelmed, wanting to understand what's driving their anxiety and how to manage it. Together, we create a warm, non-judgmental space to explore both the 'why' behind their feelings and the 'how' of moving forward—blending mindfulness, CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care to build skills that help them feel more grounded, confident, and in control.
I specialize in an integrative, multicultural approach to anxiety and identity-related concerns, blending mindfulness with practical, evidence-based techniques like CBT and DBT. I offer culturally responsive, LGBTQI+ affirming therapy for individuals, couples, and groups designed to help you find calm, clarity, and lasting tools for every day life.
Living with constant anxiety is exhausting, and wanting support doesn't mean something's wrong with you—it means you're ready for change. If you're feeling overwhelmed and searching for a space where you can be fully understood, I'd be honored to walk alongside you. Taking the first step takes courage—I'm here whenever you're ready.
