Life can shape how we see ourselves, often influenced by family, friends, and media. These internalized perceptions can impact how we live day to day. What if you could untether yourself from those expectations and truly be yourself? I believe the therapeutic relationship is sacred—a space for healing and self-discovery. My role is to listen and help you recognize how these external influences may shape your thoughts and emotions. Together, we can create the life you deserve. I offer evening and weekend availability. Reach out today to get started!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
You can expect to feel truly heard and supported in a safe, nonjudgmental space. You are the expert of your own life, and my role is to sit with you, offering empathy and understanding as we explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I aim to create an environment where you feel comfortable, at ease, and free to express yourself fully, without fear of judgment. This space is yours to heal, grow, and discover the strength you already have within.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a therapist, I bring a deep sense of empathy and cultural humility to every session. I am trauma-informed and committed to creating a safe, understanding environment for healing. I believe in the power of authenticity, so I show up as my true self, bringing warmth, openness, and even humor when appropriate to help build connection and ease. My goal is to meet you where you are and offer support that is both compassionate and empowering.

Virtual & in-personMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), my goal is to help you identify and change unhelpful patterns of thinking, behavior, and emotional responses. We work together to recognize the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and actions, and to understand how these patterns contribute to the issues you're facing, such as anxiety, depression, or stress.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
In culturally sensitive therapy, I prioritize understanding and respecting the cultural factors that shape who you are and how you experience the world. I recognize that each person comes from a unique cultural background that influences their values, beliefs, and coping strategies. My approach involves not just acknowledging but actively integrating these aspects into our work together, to ensure therapy feels relevant and respectful of your individual identity.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I believe that you have the inherent capacity for growth and healing. My role is to create a safe, supportive, and empathetic space where you can explore your feelings, thoughts, and experiences without fear of judgment. I trust that you are the expert in your own life and that, with the right conditions, you can find the answers and insights you need to move forward.
