Do you want to make changes, but feel unsure where to begin? Maybe you're in a period of transition and struggling to feel grounded. These are situations we all experience throughout life. They're part of being human, but that doesn't make them any easier to face. We all deserve to live meaningful, purposeful, and authentic lives. Often it takes a collaborative effort to get to that place, and that's where I believe I can help. I work with clients to support them in sharing their stories, identifying values and making changes.
We all have parts of our identities that influence the ways we move through the world and process our experiences. Together we will explore and affirm all of the parts of your identity that are salient to you. By exploring your identifies, values, and experiences we can identify your strengths and highlight shifts that need to occur to support your healing.
I am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, helping clients to feel more grounded and integrated in a sometimes fragmented world. No matter what you are bringing to therapy, it matters because you matter. I’m here to support you as you heal from transitions, burnout, self-esteem concerns, or race-based trauma. If you'd like to learn more, contact me today!

I am an Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and can help you connect with your body and nervous system in a deeper way. This can allow for trauma healing through your body, which is often more transformational than a solely cognitive focus. I also work with anxiety, life transitions, and racial stress. As a child of immigrants myself, I enjoy working with this population as well.
