My therapeutic approaches include but are not limited to: Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Ecosystemic Structural Family Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy.
Life stressors may often times become too overwhelming for one individual to handle. I am dedicated to helping you explore these experiences, identify a support system, and assist you through rebuilding the necessary skills which will help you manage those daily life stressors. I have worked with individuals, couples, and families of a diverse background, which has strengthened my multi-cultural lens. I provide a warm and strength-based environment to help you reach the best version of yourself. Regardless of what you might have heard, it is OK to seek mental health support. Engaging in therapy is simply another form of self-care.

Taking the leap to start therapy can be hard, which is why I aim to create a safe space for healing to begin, and every journey is honored with empathy. I work with individuals looking to improve their relationship to food or their body through an anti-diet, fat positive, and neuro-affirming approach. I’m passionate about helping individuals dismantle internalized societal norms that are harmful to their wellbeing, such as diet culture, gender roles, and capitalism. If you're looking for therapy for anxiety, depression, or other mood related concern, we'll collaborate to meet your needs and increase your coping skills toolbox.
