Great to meet you!

Whether you're working through anxiety, trauma, grief, or a life transition, you don't have to do it alone. As a biracial, bicultural LCSW with over eight years of experience, I work especially well with clients navigating identity, cultural pressures, or faith questions alongside mental health. I'm a UNLV graduate who has worked with individuals across Nevada and brings both clinical training and personal insight to every session.

My approach to therapy

My work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) — especially helpful for anxiety, trauma, and negative thought patterns. I also use an attachment-based lens to understand how early relationships shape current struggles. For clients who find meaning in faith, I'm comfortable weaving that into our work as a source of strength and hope. You set the direction; I bring the tools."

What you can expect from me

The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other. I'll ask about what's bringing you in, your background, and what you're hoping to get out of therapy. There's no pressure to share everything at once — we go at your pace. By the end, we'll have a clearer picture of what you need and begin mapping out what our work together might look like.
