My goal as a therapist is to help others make positive changes in their perspectives, one brave step at a time.

I am looking forward to meeting you! I am a licensed therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals of all different backgrounds and experiences. With 10+ years of clinical practice, I have found my niche specializing in trauma-informed care, helping clients navigate complex emotional landscapes and build resilience. Drawing from evidence-based approaches such as motivational interviewing, CBT, and psychoedutation therapies, my goal is to create a safe, compassionate space for healing and growth.
