Great to meet you!

I’m a trauma-informed therapist who helps people navigate grief, identity shifts, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

My approach to therapy

Having personally experienced profound loss early in life, I bring both empathy and authenticity to the healing process. My approach is grounded in family systems, meaning we explore your experiences within the context of your relationships, story, and values. Together, we work to build resilience, deepen emotional awareness, and foster self-compassion. My work is also deeply rooted in inclusivity and cultural responsiveness, ensuring every session honors your unique lived experience.

What you can expect from me

Therapy doesn't have to feel heavy. From the moment you begin your first session, you will feel safe, seen, and heard. We will take a deep dive into the life of YOU, identify what's holding you back, set goals, and work toward achieving them with me as your accountability partner.
