As a Multicultural Existentialist Counselor, I offer an open, honest, safe, and authentic space to build understanding, promote healing, and work towards change. I am deeply committed to meeting you where you are, understanding how you got there, and where you want to be in the future without judgment. I believe in every person's inherent agency, and will work alongside you holistically to find a path forward and develop your relationship to yourself. I work with couples, adults and teens of all racial, sexual, gender, and cultural identities in areas like identity, grief, burnout and career, emotional regulation and relationships.

So many of us feel like we are stuck in certain ways- whether it be stuck in our patterns of behaviors, our overwhelming emotions, our reactions, our relationships, or any other way we may be feeling stuck. I want to work with people who feel like they are stuck and aren’t sure where to go next. I intend to help people feel empowered and free. I am an integrative, individualist therapist who chooses to see therapy as a process of connecting and moving towards living a more authentic life. The population I work especially well with is women trying to come into their own identity and sense of self.

In the demanding, hectic world that we live in, the first thing we tend to sacrifice is self-care. I am passionate about helping individuals reprioritize themselves and discover healthy ways to cope with the more difficult aspects of life, as well as help them discover the importance of developing connection between the body and mind for overall wellness. I work hard to create a safe, welcoming environment for my clients so that they may gain valuable insight, motivation, and confidence to achieve their goals and live their best lives.
