About My Clients
I connect very well with young adults going through life transitions and self-identity exploration and couple dynamics as they grow into their relationships. I believe in providing LGBT+ Informed and Affirmative care and love helping clients tackle issues like anxiety and work to a place of better daily functioning. As a member of the BIPOC community, I greatly enjoy my work with BIPOC identified women on working on women's issues and empowerment.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
After dealing with significant loss and grief growing up, I became incredibly familiar with the challenges of functioning in every day life while having the weight of anxiety and depression hanging onto you. I understand that it is a hard thing to ask for help when you are struggling. I am passionate about psychology and the way the mind works. I became a therapist to help others know that they are not alone. I want to learn about you, listen to your stories, be present with you in uncovering your grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, or whatever it is that is weighing you down, and work alongside you on your journey to your best self. - If you are ready and open to finding a positive change to your everyday life, then the right time is right now! There may always be a reason why it’s NOT the best time to start therapy, but making yourself and your goals a priority can be the reason why it IS the perfect time.
