My mission is to guide individuals through the complexities of trauma, depression, and anxiety, fostering awareness, creativity, and multicultural appreciation in a safe environment.

I take a supportive approach in my practice, emphasizing respect and collaboration.

Hello, Nice to Meet you! - I bring a gentle and supportive perspective from time spent in several different settings within the mental-health field. I value every person’s journey as unique and know that trust is something that is earned in the therapeutic relationship.

I believe that therapy is most effective when clients are actively engaged in their own healing journey. My role is to offer guidance and create a nurturing space that fosters personal growth and self-discovery. I focus on empowering you to lead the way while providing the support you need. I have experience working with many populations, including homelessness, substance use, trauma, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and elderly adults

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in a humanistic perspective. Drawing from Gestalt therapy as well as evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I see therapy as a shared process—one where you remain the expert of your own story. I strive to walk alongside my clients, honoring their strength, autonomy, and cultural backgrounds while fostering an environment where healing, empowerment, and meaningful transformation can take place. I work with individuals ages 14 and up, including teenagers, young adults, and adults at various life stages. I have a strong commitment to trauma-informed, culturally attuned care and am especially passionate about supporting BIPOC clients, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and military service members and their families.

My practice is focused on partnering with adults and elders to navigate and process the often inevitable trauma they encounter. I aim to cultivate a therapeutic environment that can hold both the most painful parts of life, and the most lovely...some levity here and there can’t hurt either. I have nothing but admiration for those who decide to come to therapy. This process can be unbearably hard, and even still, every day I witness powerful expansion in people as a result of the process.

Embracing change through psychotherapy, I offer a compassionate and supportive space for clients to embark on their journey toward recovery and understanding. I specialize in treating behavioral, alcohol, and substance addictions, helping individuals regain control and find balance in their lives.

I arrive to each session with authenticity and curiosity—psychological growth is a deep passion of mine that is integrated into all areas of my life. I integrate elements from various therapy frameworks, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI) to tailor treatment to each individual's needs. My work spans diverse communities, including the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities and individuals from various economic backgrounds.

I prioritize honesty, empathy, and thoughtful feedback, fostering a collaborative environment to help you progress toward your goals.

I enjoy building genuine connections and strong relationships with my clients. I find it fulfilling to be able to witness and support positive changes that unfold over time with my longer-term clients.

In our therapeutic journey together, I aim to provide a welcoming and secure environment for your healing and personal growth.

Together, we can navigate the emotional complexities of intimate relationships, fostering a secure bond and mutual support.
