Great to meet you!

As a licensed mental health counselor and 3 years of experience, I have worked with a wide-range of mental health and life change challenges, including training in the treatment of trauma. I am passionate about creating an affirming space for exploring identity and culture.

My approach to therapy

I aim to create a warm, nonjudgmental space that will honor your lived experience and innate capacity for growth. Together we can explore your strengths, personal meaning, and values so that change feels authentic and sustainable. We may also challenge patterns of thinking that exacerbate distress and hold you back from the self-compassion you deserve.

What you can expect from me

I currently provide telehealthy therapy; we will start with a 15 min video consultation to explore your needs and ensure we will be a good fit. Our first appointment together we will discuss goals and how past experiences may be impacting present challenges.
