My work is grounded in liberation psychology and cultural humility. Who you are, your race, gender, spirituality, family history, community ties, and the systems you navigate every day, and your relationship to power is not background information. It is central to the work. You will not need to minimize, explain away, or translate your experience here. My approach is integrative. I draw from Internal Family Systems, Multicultural Family Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, embodiment practices, and Emotional Freedom Technique, weaving these together based on what you need and what resonates with you. No single method fits every person, and I am not attached to a rigid formula. I work alongside you, not above you. We will identify together what you are working toward and what pathways make sense for your life. I believe deeply that the most meaningful change happens when your voice, your values, and your cultural wisdom are driving the process.

Welcome! Taking a meaningful look at our day-to-day lives and pasts can be daunting-let’s create a tender and safe atmosphere to wade through this process together. I support young adults and students who are exploring relationships, transitions, and traumas. I have several years of experience working with college aged students navigating anxiety, academic challenges, and depression. During our time together you will be met with a caring presence and guidance to honor your own inner wisdom and healing. I trust your experience and understanding of your world around you. Together we can mindfully work towards establishing a sense of peace and authenticity. I recognize that everyone's healing journey is different, so if you'd like to see if we would be a good fit, please reach out and we can schedule a time to chat.

Clinical specialist: trauma (childhood sexual abuse and cult abuse) and Cluster B personality disorders (including narcissistic abuse). You look high-functioning on the outside—but your relationships, emotions, or sense of self may tell a different story. Sound familiar? You may be stuck in painful relationship patterns, drawn to emotionally unavailable or narcissistic partners, struggling with identity instability, emotional overwhelm, chronic emptiness, or the lasting effects of trauma. Integrating EMDR, somatic therapy, parts work, and depth psychology approaches, I help patients move beyond insight alone to create meaningful, lasting change. This work is especially well-suited for individuals who are ready to understand themselves more deeply, heal long-standing patterns, and move beyond survival mode—not just manage symptoms.
