Introduction

My ideal clients are individuals, teens, and children navigating trauma, chronic illness, or neurodivergence who want a humanistic, LGBTQIA+-affirming space. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed by past experiences, or seeking to reclaim agency and authentic self-expression. Informed by a multicultural lens and Eastern philosophy, while remaining deeply open and adaptable to all cultural worldviews and personal beliefs, I help clients move forward by integrating IFS, DBT, Narrative, and Somatic Psychotherapy with expressive art and music therapy. I help clients cultivate embodied balance and sustainable healing. I offer a humanistic, trauma-informed space utilizing DBT, Internal Family Systems, Narrative Therapy, and Somatic Processing alongside expressive arts based on the needs of the client. Specializing in trauma, neurodivergence, and chronic illness, I help clients navigate complex challenges through a personalized, holistic lens. Healing is a deeply personal journey, and you don’t have to walk it alone. Whether you're navigating trauma, high-performance stress, or caring for aging loved ones, I offer an open-minded space grounded in art, meditation, and lived creativity. Let's connect.
