Who Am I?

As a multicultural psychotherapist, I have immense compassion for the circumstances that lead one to seek out therapy. I commend your courage for being here. I view therapy as a safe, non-judgmental space dedicated to your healing and growth. Through this work we may explore where you feel stuck and how to get unstuck. In the process, we will come to understand the multifaceted parts that make up your identity, what it means to be in relationship with yourself and those around you, how to be authentically yourself. Furthermore, you will ultimately create deeper, more meaningful relationships and experiences. 

What I do.

My training specializes in multicultural psychology supports my competency as a multicultural psychotherapist, offering a comprehensive approach to understanding the intersections of identity—gender, race, sexuality, ethnicity, religion, social class, ability, and body size. Through this lens, we explore how power, privilege, and oppression shape individual experiences within the broader societal context.

I also focus on:

• Trauma and Grief Counseling: Addressing cultural trauma, gender-based trauma, and other emotional wounds to foster healing.
• Attachment and Relationship Issues: Helping individuals navigate challenges rooted in connection and bonding.
• Mindfulness and Somatic Experiencing: Promoting awareness and resilience through body-centered practices.
• Career Counseling and Life Design: Guiding clients to create meaningful, purpose-driven professional paths.
• Navigating Life Transitions: Supporting personal growth during significant changes or challenges.

This holistic and culturally aware approach allows clients to feel seen, supported, and empowered as they navigate their unique journeys.
