I bring warmth, directness, and deep respect into the therapy room. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and rooted in radical compassion. As a multiracial, queer, cis woman, I understand firsthand how identity, safety, and visibility shape mental health. I have extensive experience working alongside LGBTQ+ individuals and communities, and I specialize in providing affirming care that honors your lived experience without pathologizing it.
Together, we’ll explore emotional patterns, internalized messages, and survival strategies that once served you but may no longer fit. Therapy becomes a place to reclaim your sense of self, build emotional resilience, and practice showing up as your full, authentic self. My clients often find that this work helps them feel more grounded, more empowered, and better equipped to navigate relationships and life with clarity and self-trust.
I utilize various modalities including Internal Family Systems, Narrative Theory, Existentialism, and somatic practices to support healing trauma and exploring identity. I use these modalities to help my clients move through the pain held in their bodies so they can find real relief. I especially enjoy supporting clients working through their relationship to anger, anxiety, and depression. I believe in your ability to heal.
