About

I believe asking for help is the hardest part of the healing journey. It can be difficult to find someone to let your guard down with. I try to create a space that is welcoming to all parts of you. The majority of folks I see are BIPOC, LGBQIA+/ TGNC, first-generation, immigrants, creatives, and/or trauma survivors. Common issues I tackle: sexual trauma, childhood trauma, identity exploration, intimacy, building trust (self & others), work/life balance, self-esteem, creating safety, emotional expression, grief, sleep hygiene, and rest. People who gravitate towards healing with me share traits of resilience and curiosity. As a counselor, it is crucial for the healing space to be validating, safe, and consensual. I encourage clients to engage in self-compassion and body soothing. My approach creates a balance of skill building, challenging, and problem solving with a more decolonized, trauma based lens.
