Great to meet you!

There are many reasons to pursue therapy services such as seeking a safe, empowering environment in which all can explore their lived experiences and intersecting identities within the context of the systems in which we live. I aim to cultivate a therapeutic partnership that encourages openness allowing for all clients to promote their best interest while living with agency, authenticity, and purpose.

I am a Master’s Level Clinician at Bellevue Counseling with an LSWAIC and a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I specialize in clinical social work focusing on adults and youth through a multi-cultural and social justice lens.

I aim to provide a variety of therapeutic modalities and methods, as well as psychoeducation and experience to bring awareness to social justice, liberation of oppression, and a trauma-informed lens. Previously I have worked with youth and adults in inpatient psychiatric, community mental health, emergency department, and the correctional system.

My approach to therapy

Through a strength based approach, together we will strive to harness your agency and strengths while providing support and determining your needs. I believe the therapeutic alliance between client and provider is pertinent to building a safe space to cultivate healing and growth.
