Taking the first step toward healing can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to walk this path alone. I am a dedicated therapist passionate about helping individuals process trauma, navigate complex emotions, and reclaim their inner strength. In our work together, we won’t just talk about what’s happening in your mind—we will look at the whole picture. I specialize in nervous system regulation, helping you move out of constant survival mode (like feeling perpetually anxious, overwhelmed, or shut down) and back into a state of safety and balance.
The first session will be a detailed assessment about you and what you have been through to get a birds eye view. The assessment will be more structured than a regular session. We will create a treatment plan and discuss goals for therapy and what you hope to gain.
My goal is to create a warm, collaborative, and entirely judgment-free space where you feel truly heard. Together, we will uncover the why behind your patterns, giving you the insights and practical tools you need to feel deeply empowered and connected to your true self. I use humor in my sessions, while being able to hold space when support is needed. Once rapport has been built, I can be a direct therapist and might challenge thoughts and patterns of behavior to help you learn to trust yourself and feel into your own power to control the life you want to live.
I'm a trauma therapist which means when a person notices their past is playing a negative part in their future and wants to feel differently, I'm available. Trauma is not the experience a person has gone through, it's when the body goes into an overwhelming emotional state. This overwhelm gets activated by memories and experiences held in the mind and body. My goal is to help people process their emotions stored in their body, help them feel safe in their body and notice their goodness to then process the trauma if needed. I identify as BIPOC and understand generational trauma, systemic racism and colonization. I am also spiritual and tarot friendly.
