I primarily work with individuals 18+ years and couples. I specialize in BIPOC mental health and wellness, and have a particular niche working with children of immigrants. My clients often comment and share their appreciation for my genuine and authentic nature in sessions, and the way that I strive to be a practitioner who honors and works to help my clients achieve whatever they are seeking. I consistently work to create and maintain a casual, comfortable, and authentic feel to our therapy sessions to help us be in a safe environment to explore your thoughts, feelings, and vulnerabilities. As both a person and therapist, I believe in a community care approach to therapy. I work with you to expand your own sense of community and resources that you can utilize to create a sustainable healing routine and practice. That could look like helping you find and connect to safe and trustworthy psychiatrists, acupuncturists, body workers, and any other resource that will be good for you!

I‘ve had lots of success working with depression, anxiety, relationship and family stress, childhood abuse and neglect, racial identity issues, intergenerational trauma and healing, and other traumatic experiences (singular and chronic). I’ve helped clients explore and find a sense of resolution when it comes to dating life, dating habits, parental disagreements, and routine building. I’ve also supported my clients in increasing their comfortability and practice in setting boundaries with people in their lives they most struggle. Additionally, I have also supported those who have experienced non-physical abuse and are seeking to process, understand, and rewrite their relationship with themselves. As a narcissistic abuse treatment therapist, I help my clients heal through the relationship and establish new habits and protection to prevent the experience of this abuse again. We work together to reinvent the cycles.

I use an eclectic approach of theories depending on what will best fit my client and their therapeutic goals. My graduate training was grounded in a social justice lens, and since then I have only deepened and expanded my grounding in decolonial and liberation for all teachings and theories. I practice from a systems perspective which means we engage in therapy looking at the client’s role and relationship with all parts of the system (i.e., family, relationships, position in life, religious/spiritual practice, and more). My main therapeutic approaches include depth and insight oriented psychodynamic theory, combined with polyvagal and nervous system informed work. I also offer inner child and shadow depth work for those seeking a more intensive healing experience. I particularly enjoy inner child and shadow work sessions with my clients as it has been a wildly beautiful and powerful transformation to go through.
