About
My life’s work has been all about interrupting black and white thinking. I know what it’s like to feel forced to pick sides—by a community, by conflicting parts of identity, by rigid ideas of right and wrong. As I’ve healed and grown, I’ve learned to appreciate that becoming your own person means learning how to navigate a world that isn’t as straightforward as our families, systems, or the status quo would like us to believe. Therapy's a place where you can unlock your sense of autonomy and self-worth—once you feel ready to embark on the journey. & I'll be there to walk alongside you with compassion, empathy, and a genuine smile. My person-centered therapeutic approach sits in the intersection of authentic expression and empowerment—blending techniques from a strengths-based framework, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), solution-focused theory, written reflection, mindfulness practices, and more.
