Great to meet you!

I have been in the mental health field since 2016 and it is truly my passion! I have inpatient/outpatient hospital experience working with those who have severe mental illness, crisis stabilization, individuals and loved ones struggling with adjustment to illness, and anticipatory grief.


I enjoy working with adults who are neurodivergent, the LGBTQIA+ community, infertility/loss/birthing trauma, adult children of immigrants (1st/2nd gen), cultural adjustments/assimilation, and trauma. You could say I'm a liberation therapist.

My approach to therapy

The approaches I use (depending on what works best for you) are CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and I have an empowering, strengths-based style. I love working with clients on creating healthy boundaries, how to be true to yourself, and teaching techniques that can help manage anxiety. I enjoy learning how to be a better therapist by keeping an open mind, reading, and taking educational courses to strengthen my skills.

What you can expect from me

I provide my clients with a safe, non-judgmental space in a caring, empathetic, and supportive way to allow you to rant about things from the week or to work through your trauma (your trauma and your drama). I can help you to process through thoughts and emotions with the larger goal of living a healthy, good quality life and get you to feel good about being your most authentic self!
