Welcome- I'm a culturally informed and trauma oriented counselor dedicated to help individual to heal, grow, and reconnect with their authentic selves.

My journey into mental health work began during my years as a Child Protective Specialist in NYC, where I worked closely with children and adults navigating some of life's most painful and complex circumstances.

After receiving my graduate degree, I worked with non-profit organization supporting children and survivors of domestic violence. Today, I serve as a full time outpatient mental health therapist working with clients from diverse background who are seeking healing, clarity, and empowerment.

Each step of my career has been guiding me by a simple truth: that healing is possible when people feel truly seen, heard, understood, supported. My new chapter with Headway marks an exciting step forward- expanding my practice to offer compassionate, evidence-based therapy for those ready to begin or continue their healing journey.

I am a licensed psychotherapist working with adults, individuals, and couples, offering a warm, collaborative, and client-centered approach. My work is grounded in relational, psychodynamic, and existential perspectives and integrates cognitive behavioral techniques and trauma-informed care. Together, we explore how emotions, attachment experiences, and relationships shape your inner world while building practical tools for change.

I specialize in relationship dynamics, anxiety, life transitions, identity exploration, loneliness, grief, and emotional regulation. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling disconnected; from others, from themselves, or from a sense of meaning in their lives.

I strive to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and challenged with compassion. Together, we focus less on finding perfect solutions and more on developing the capacity to navigate life’s complexities while fostering greater connection, self-understanding, and belonging.
