About
Hello and welcome! I believe everyone has the ability to lead a fulfilling life and create meaningful relationships. Relationships are at the heart of our lives, and when they’re strained - or when we’re longing for one that hasn’t yet come - it can leave us feeling stuck, anxious, or unsure how to move forward. To me, therapy is a healing conversation, offering a safe, non-judgmental space to explore challenges and reconnect with your strengths. Together, we’ll foster self-acceptance, meaningful change, and solutions that align with your values so you can move toward the healthiest version of yourself. As a POC, I bring a culturally responsive lens to my work. I specialize in depression, religious/cultural/political differences, LGBTQIA+ issues, and dating or relationship struggles (including polyamorous couples). I’m especially passionate about helping people build healthy relationships as well as rebuild their lives after major changes or loss.
