About me

Hey there, I am Radiant! Are you struggling in relationship? Are you facing a new transition in life that feels difficult or overwhelming? Despite your efforts, do you find yourself questioning, "why is this happening to me"? There are times in life when we could all use a little support. Whether you are new to therapy, or returning to develop new coping skills, I would be honored to partner with you on your journey to healing and wellness. I create a partnership rooted in respect, compassion, transparency, and free of judgment. It is my mission to increase access to mental health services, specifically in under-served and marginalized communities. Finding the right therapist can be like finding the perfect pair of shoes. You may try on a few pairs, before you find the right fit. I will meet you where you are and create a safe space that promotes healing and growth. I look forward to meeting you and becoming part of your journey.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session we will start with brief introductions and then dive into the specific challenges you are facing as well as goals for our work together.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

I use a strengths-based approach to build upon your resilience and self-awareness. I use motivational interviewing to foster a partnership that promotes change, affirms, and supports autonomy. I use cognitive behavioral therapy to challenge negative/self-defeating thoughts, face one's fears rather than avoid them, and gain a better understanding of behavior. I use mindfulness techniques, deep breathing exercises, guided meditation, and provide homework assignments as needed.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Working with individuals experiencing life transition(s) is my greatest strength. I enjoy working with individuals and couples experiencing interpersonal conflict, grief and loss, post-partum depression, depression, and anxiety.
