Therapy is a sacred space. It’s where you can pause, breathe, and begin finding a truth that is defined by you. My purpose is to hold that space with compassion and curiosity—so you can explore your roots, heal deeply, and create a version of yourself that feels authentic. I am a Mental Health Counselor with a Limited Permit and clinical experience at Montefiore Medical Center. I specialize in supporting individuals through addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, identity exploration, and relationship challenges, with a strong commitment to the LGBTQ+ community, women’s issues, and multicultural concerns. My approach is integrative and client-centered, blending evidence-based practices like CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, and narrative therapy with a humanistic lens. I also draw on trauma-informed care, harm reduction, and Internal Family Systems to meet you where you are. Outside of traditional therapy, I infuse my passion for creative writing and ancestral healing—guiding you to rediscover your voice and connect with the strength of your roots. I believe in interlacing the stories and patterns passed down through generations—honoring your heritage while gently breaking cycles that no longer serve you. Together, we’ll create a safe space for meaningful exploration, building resilience, and embracing transformation. This is your journey, and it begins with defining who you are—on your own terms.
