Here to Help You Heal
As a mental health counselor, I am dedicated to helping children, middle-aged adults, disabled/differently abled individuals, and members of the BIPOC, LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, and student communities navigate their struggles. My approach is empathetic, holistically understanding, and strength focused, as I believe that every person has the innate strength to proceed throughout the complexity of this journey called life.
My specialties include personality disorders, life and career transitions, emotional development and regulation, trauma, grief, gender/sexuality (LGBTQ+) processing, anxiety, anger management, depression, and external stresses. Help is available for anyone in need, including those with different economic statuses or comorbid physical and mental health challenges.
My Approach to Care
Working together, you can expect a personable, humorous, and relaxed environment that incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), bibliotherapy, art therapy, Gestalt therapy, and existential therapy. These approaches are designed to help you get a sense of control over your emotional/psychological well-being and develop the ability to effectively handle the influence of external forces.
My multicultural approach to influences allows you to see a more holistic view of our lives. I believe in holistic, curiously led empathy, which helps me to view you in your entirety and assist in your journey, so you realize the magnitude of your abilities and the power of hope.
A Journey into Exceptional Patient Care
My own experience in seeking mental health counseling led me toward the path to becoming a therapist. This experience created within me a deep desire to make just as profound a difference in others’ lives as my own counselor did. Now, I bring openness, curiosity, humor, and strength-focused empathy garnered from my own mental health journey to each session.
Personal Interests
Outside the office, I love indulging on my creative side – reading, writing, and watching diverse media. I’m also often out and about, traveling and exploring local businesses to support my community!
