I believe that true healing begins when you feel completely seen, safe, and understood. My practice is rooted in a warm, culturally affirming environment that honors your unique lived experiences and the importance of social justice in our everyday lives. From this foundation of safety, I bring extensive experience working with children, adolescents, and families navigating mental, emotional, and behavioral challenges. My clinical background includes supporting clients through presenting concerns related to autism, ADHD, anxiety, trauma, identity development, and relational conflict.
I bring a holistic approach, believing we have an innate ability to build healthy relationships through love and community. Using experiential, Internal Family Systems, trauma-informed, and Play Therapy, I balance immediate relief with lifelong wellness. I am also certified in Psychological First Aid and Prepare & Enrich for couples.
I also offer Diagnostic Assessments to clarify diagnoses and core issues. Each includes a 60-minute session, a personalized treatment plan, and tailored referrals to meet your family’s exact needs. Please connect with me via email for a rapid response to any questions or to schedule our first session.
