My ideal client faces the impact of trauma and life events, caught in patterns hindering progress. Struggling with past experiences, heightened emotions, and frequent criticism, they often question their mental well-being. You're an ideal fit if you seek someone genuinely interested in hearing and understanding your story. I'm here to walk alongside you as you craft a new narrative. If you're seeking growth in relationships, self-worth, relief from pain, and overall life development, you've come to the right place. Let's work together to create a life you truly want to live.
Recovery from trauma requires a specialized guide who understands the intersection of your identities so you can focus on your trauma healing. My heart for serving the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities has resulted in over a decade of experience and advanced training in trauma therapies including EMDR, ACT, and mindfulness skills proven to lead to healing.
You are tried of being told there is something wrong with you. You are ready to find relief and see real change in your life, but you don't know where to start. I'm here to help, to guide you to the life you want. Let's figure this out together.

My favorite therapies to use are EMDR, ACT, Narrative, and Internal Family Systems. I have found that like me, many of my clients want to see change in their life now not later! These therapies get to the heart of issues quickly and help my clients understanding who they are now. I am a therapist that loves to see growth in my clients; these therapies do that.
