I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen, heard, valued, and empowered to be your authentic self. My approach is warm, compassionate, collaborative, and individualized. I work with adolescents, teens, college students, and adults, with a particular passion for supporting women, BIPOC individuals, and LGBTQIA+ communities. I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, life transitions, identity development, self-esteem, confidence, relationship challenges, and minority-related stressors. I recognize the impact that culture, identity, relationships, and lived experiences can have on emotional well-being, and I strive to provide culturally responsive, affirming care. My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Compassion-Focused Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I tailor treatment to each individual's unique strengths, experiences, and goals. I believe therapy is not about changing who you are, but about helping you better understand yourself, build confidence, strengthen your coping skills, and feel empowered to create meaningful change. My goal is to meet you where you are while supporting your growth toward a more balanced, fulfilling, and authentic life.
