LCSW, 11 years of experience
New to Grow
With over 11 years of clinical experience, I offer trauma-informed, culturally competent care that meets people where they are- whether you're coping with anxiety, past trauma, life transitions, or simply feeling overwhelmed. My work is rooted in a trauma-informed, client centered, culturally responsive framework, with a deep commitment to decolonizing therapy and making mental health care more equitable and affirming. I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel seen, heard, and supported.
If you're looking for a therapist who will honor your story, center your strengths, and walk alongside you in your healing journey, I invite you to reach out.
What stands out about my approach is the balance of compassion and practicality I bring to therapy. With over 11 years of experience, I create a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood, while also offering concrete tools to help you manage challenges and move toward lasting change. My style is collaborative, down-to-earth, and tailored to your unique needs—so you leave sessions not just with insight, but with strategies you can use in everyday life.
I am passionate about helping BIPOC women and adolescents navigate life's challenges with strength and clarity.
I have over 11 years of experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns, strengthen coping skills, and create lasting behavior change. I tailor CBT strategies to each client’s goals, focusing on practical tools they can apply in daily life.
I have extensive experience using Motivational Interviewing (MI) to support clients in exploring ambivalence, clarifying values, and strengthening motivation for change. I use MI’s collaborative, client-centered approach to help individuals build confidence and take meaningful steps toward their goals.
I integrate Trauma-Informed Care by creating a safe, supportive environment that emphasizes trust, choice, and collaboration. I recognize the impact of trauma on thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and tailor interventions in a way that promotes empowerment, resilience, and healing.
