As a biracial person, I have experienced the same racial discrimination, microaggressions, and racism that my clients of color have encountered. My experiences offer me a unique perspective and understanding of how these encounters influence and impact POC and how they show up in the world. It is my goal to work with my clients collaboratively to assist them in navigating such encounters that impact them in all areas of their lives. My goal is to help my clients identify, connect, and process these experiences in a safe and supportive environment.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During your first session we will discuss the Who, What, and Why of it all. Who is coming into therapy and gaining historical information of your story. We will discuss what is brining you into therapy today and why now. What is occurring currently that has led you to make the decision to start. Everyone requires something different, so we will discuss your goals and work together to develop a plan for your process.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My ability to connect with clients on a personable level that allows expression of their true authentic self in a supportive and nurturing environment.
