Great to meet you!

Growing up, mental health didn’t exist in my family or community. Now that I am wiser, I know it was always there but overlooked, especially in minority communities. I am here to assist you not only get through those trying times in life that we all go through but also to let you know that you are not alone in this journey. I will challenge you to become the best version of yourself by providing you with the tools and confidence to face yourself, others and have those difficult conversations.

My approach to therapy

Do you have depressive, negative or self-defeating thoughts that make life hard to enjoy? Or feel that your traumatic past is holding you back from achieving your best self? Trust me, you are not alone. I assist with overcoming those overwhelming thoughts associated with anxiety, depression and trauma. I love channeling those inner feelings and processing thoughts to get to the core of your struggles, all while creating structure in your daily life, setting goals and increasing self-esteem.
