Great to meet you!

I want all my clients to know that they are safe to discover whatever they want to learn about their lived experiences. Working with me is very autonomous and rooted in self-determination. You will act as the guide along your healing journey. I am happy to serve as a resource center, grounding presence, and conversationalist throughout your journey. I will always encourage you to show up as you are and trust that the rest will follow as we untangle the many strings that make up our mind, heart, and lived experiences.

My approach to therapy

I function through a culturally sensitive and trauma-informed lens, incorporating art healing, meditation & mindfulness, and various trauma therapies to help clients feel seen, heard, and healthily challenged.

What you can expect from me

Sessions with me vary from week to week, based on what it is you are needing to address in the moment. Using a wide variety of therapy modalities in combo with holistic practices, we can work through everything from day-to-day struggles to deep-seated trauma. Rest assured, we will always find something to explore and learn about together.

Through deep critical thinking and gentle, intentional processing, we will find your unique therapeutic style pulling from your choice of healing modalities. My goal is to use my background in healing practices to inform our sessions. my very intentional approach, I hope to aid you find which modalities you are most comfortable processing your experiences. At the end of the day, you are in control of your healing and how each therapy session flows!
