I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 10+ years of experience helping teens, young adults, and families heal and grow. I create a culturally affirming, judgment-free space to explore identity, anxiety, trauma, and life’s messier moments. My style is authentic, relational, and rooted in both evidence-based care and mind-body healing practices like mindfulness and somatic work. Therapy with me goes deeper—we’ll build something meaningful, empowering, and truly transformative. You don’t have to do this alone.
My approach to care is rooted in authenticity, cultural humility, and mind-body awareness. I strive to create a space where clients—especially young adults and people of color—can show up fully as themselves, without fear of judgment or the need to explain their identity.
My communication style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I show up as a real person in the room—empathetic, present, and honest—because I believe healing happens through authentic connection, not formality. I create a space where clients feel safe to express themselves without fear of judgment or needing to “have it all together.”
