Building a full, beautiful life at the margins of culture, identity, or relationship style can feel overwhelming and confusing. Maybe you’re straddling two or more worlds – and the weight of existing in all of them at once is taking a toll. Perhaps you carry trauma from childhood, struggle with the relentless demands of code-switching, or find yourself overfunctioning while quietly managing a chronic illness or neurodivergence that others don’t always see. This is where our work comes in – helping you build confidence and sustainability in your life to live your values out loud using pragmatic and real-world solutions.

Many of my clients feel like they’ve been given every opportunity to succeed but still aren’t sure why life feels so hard – because the systems they’re embedded in, and the intergenerational trauma they carry, rarely get counted in that equation. I serve queer, trans, and gender-expansive individuals, those in non-monogamous and polyamorous relationships, and kinky folks of all stripes. Additionally, I specialize in supporting QTBIPOC individuals, multiracial and mixed-race people, neurodivergent folks, and those navigating the unique pressures of STEM fields and academia to feel more stable and joyful in their daily lives.

In therapy together, you can expect to feel less guilty and more grounded, to learn how to ask for what you need and actually receive support, and to develop the enduring self-confidence to meet life’s challenges without abandoning yourself in the process. Whether you are navigating conflict in your relationships, seeking support for queer or trans identity exploration, or recovering from burnout and overextension, therapy is a space where all of it can be held with care. Together, we will tap into your cultural and internal wisdom, untangle the stories that have kept you stuck, and build tangible strategies that increase your capacity for connection, rest, and joy.

My clinical approach draws from anti-oppression and liberation psychology, harm reduction, trauma-informed mindfulness and somatic therapy, attachment therapy, radical self-compassion, and existential humanistic philosophy. I work with transitional-aged youth (16–24) and adults in individual and relationship sessions. As a mixed-race Latinx, queer, and non-binary therapist, I bring both professional expertise and a deep personal understanding to this work. You don’t have to be perfect to feel good – and together, we can find your way there.
