My communication style

My communication style is warm, compassionate, open, and direct. I bring curiosity, deep listening, and empathy into each session while also gently challenging you to grow. I balance validation with accountability, offering a space that feels supportive and non-judgmental while encouraging movement toward your goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

I know firsthand how difficult it can be to find a therapist who understands the complexities of trauma, identity, oppression, and resilience. My own experiences navigating mental health, community, and belonging led me to therapy. I wanted to create the kind of space I once needed—one where marginalized clients feel seen, heard, and supported.

My goals for you

I help you identify goals by first exploring what matters most—whether that's improving daily functioning, finding relief from anxiety or depression, healing from trauma, or building stronger relationships. Together, we break those goals into manageable steps, weaving in coping skills, self-awareness, and resilience practices.

Our first session

A first session is about connection and understanding. We'll spend time getting to know each other, talking about what brings you to therapy, and what you hope to gain from our work together. I'll ask questions about your history, current challenges, and strengths, but I'll move at your pace.
