Do you ever feel unseen or misunderstood? Anxious and nervous when stepping into a social setting? Do you desire to speak your truth without worry or fear of what others might think? Do you wish to feel more confident in expressing your authentic self? Are you hoping therapy can provide a safe space to explore the complexities of identity? I am here to help you navigate these challenges and help you find healing, validation, and growth.
Together we'll develop skills and tools tailored to your needs to achieve your goals. I utilizing holistic modalities such as mindfulness and somatic practices to increase self-awareness and build self-compassion. I am particularly skilled in working with adolescents, adults, new parents, HSP, and marginalized communities including LGBTQ+ communities.
Being an intuitive empath and highly sensitive person, I connect deeply with others and believe therapy approaches should be tailed to each person's unique circumstances and pace. As a queer-identified person of color, I understand the importance of feeling understood and validated in your experiences. Let's talk to see if I am a good fit for what you need.
