About

Grounded in the transformative principles of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and holistic, strength-based techniques, I aim to create a therapeutic space where authenticity, healing, and empowerment flourish. My approach is comprehensive, trauma-informed, and personalized, based on the belief that true healing arises from radical acceptance and compassion. Growing up in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and now in Chicago, I carry lessons of community, resilience, and adaptability, which drive my commitment to serving BIPOC, queer, and underrepresented voices. I believe therapy should feel like coming home to yourself, a place where all parts of you are welcome and celebrated. Whether navigating issues of identity, trauma, or relationships, embracing your truth is a radical and necessary act of self-love. My hope is to walk beside you on this path as you rediscover your own strength and find your voice.
