As a multicultural mental health counselor, I am deeply committed to honoring diversity in all its forms and creating a safe, inclusive space where every individual's unique experiences are valued and respected. Whether you're a teenager navigating the complexities of adolescence, an adult striving for personal fulfillment, or a couple seeking to strengthen your bond, I am here to offer guidance and support every step of the way. I work with individuals wanting to cope with a plethora of issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, couples' issues, substance related issues, sexual abuse, queer identifying, life management, etc.

I like to take an eclectic approach to therapy, and I am multiculturally competent. I am trained in CBT, DBT, REBT, Art therapy, and am a Level 1 certified Gottman method therapist. I have also worked with diverse populations (young children through senior adults) and settings such as an orphanage, a juvenile remand home, substance rehab, and private agency.

The upkeep of one's mental health is of the utmost importance and being a therapist isn't a job but it's a calling that excites and motivates me to go above and beyond with clients. My sessions are not just clinical interactions, but warm conversations held in a safe space. At the core of this space is unyielding support, empathy, connectedness, and peace.
