Introduction

Life can be beautiful and brutal — sometimes both at once. If you’ve been carrying the weight of trauma, anxiety, identity questions, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, you’re not alone. Therapy can be a place to slow down, unpack what’s heavy, and begin moving toward healing with intention and care. My passion lies in empowering individuals to transcend painful experiences and create a life rich with purpose. I believe in the inherent potential of every person to heal and grow. My approach is affirming, trauma-informed, and rooted in deep respect for who you are — your culture, your story, your truth. In my practice, I support individuals facing complex trauma, LGBTQIA+ issues, identity concerns, abuse, anxiety, and depression. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I tailor evidence-based approaches like ACT, CBT, and IFS to your unique needs, helping you heal and grow in a way that aligns with your goals and values. I strive to create a validating and inclusive space where you feel heard, understood, and valued. Together, we can explore your experiences with curiosity, allowing you to move through challenges with greater clarity, self-awareness, and compassion. Wherever you are in your journey, I invite you to take the next step when you’re ready — I’ll meet you there. Click on the Request Appointment link above to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.
