Great to meet you!

I support adults navigating anxiety, life changes, ADHD symptoms, and relationship and family stressors. I have a particular passion for working with the BIPOC population.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach is an integration of different therapy styles that help clients become more mindful of their needs and gain a better understanding of who they are. Clients describe me as warm, reflective, authentic, and inquisitive, deeply connecting to their life experiences.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients will feel more rooted in their identity and have a space to feel supported and heard.
