Introduction

Life can feel overwhelming when emotions are intense, relationships feel complicated, or you find yourself repeating patterns that no longer serve you. Therapy can provide a space to better understand yourself, navigate challenges with greater confidence, and build healthier, more fulfilling connections with others. I work from an affirming, culturally responsive, and client-centered perspective, recognizing that every person’s experiences, identities, relationships, and values are unique. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe exploring concerns related to relationships, intimacy, sexuality, gender identity, self-esteem, life transitions, communication difficulties, emotional regulation, and personal growth. I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all, which is why I take a collaborative and open approach where you will always have space to provide feedback so we can ensure your therapy journey is one that honors your individuality. My goal is to provide a nonjudgmental environment where you feel respected, supported, and empowered throughout the counseling process. As a Clinical Mental Health Counseling intern working under supervision, I am committed to providing compassionate care and partnering with you to identify goals that align with your values, strengths, and vision for your life.
