About

As a constantly busy person not tending to yourself because of a tradition of putting yourself last, it can be challenging to pause or ask for help. Something, finally, brought you to a halt and you are starting to give yourself permission to welcome support. I offer my enthusiasm to partner in your journey of identifying strengths, growing from challenges, and building on them. A multicultural background and experience working with clients of diverse narratives and identities help me to remain open to your point of view. I have an extensive history working within the arts community with children, adolescents, and adults.

My practice is engaging individuals in cultivating or reconnecting with their agency to thrive, especially following burnout. Cultural and historical context are a priority, such that a fuller story helps in creating a new consciousness to move beyond surviving.
