As your therapist, I am committed to cultivating a healing environment to compassionately support you in being able to align with your true values and learn to be in authentic relationship with yourself, your loved ones and within your community. We’ll take a healing journey together towards a path of a more meaningful and fulfilling life. A life where you will be able to set boundaries and know how to have your needs met. A life that will feel lighter and you’d feel more at ease with others and with yourself. A life in which it’s comfortable to truly be who you are.
My approach is person-centered where I understand you, your world and collaborate with you to generate solutions tailored to meet your needs. I have a trauma-informed, holistic, decolonized, social justice oriented lens which helps address underlying and root cause issues. I focus on the connection between mind-body-spirit for healing you as a whole.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, anger/impulse control, relationship issues/codependency or anything making you feel lost or stuck in your life, know that you don’t have to shoulder these burdens alone. If you’re motivated for change I’m ready to help you grow into the authentic life you deserve!
