Welcome, and thank you for being here. I know it’s not always easy to take that first step, but it’s a brave one. It takes immense courage to seek support and begin the journey toward healing and growth. I want to honor the strength it took for you to arrive here. The human spirit, in its infinite wisdom, holds the power to transform pain into resilience. I’m here to journey with you, offering compassion in my heart, curiosity in my mind, and a steadfast belief in your innate ability to heal, grow, and flourish.

I specialize in helping clients navigate a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, relationships, life transitions, chronic illness, and racial identity issues. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, seeking clarity, or looking to heal from past pain, I’m here to support you with empathy and understanding.

As a mother of two with a unique and varied career journey, I bring a multicultural and gender-affirming perspective to the work I do. Over the years, I’ve worn many hats—from engineering and marketing to crisis support and now counseling psychology. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of the struggles many people face, whether it’s navigating relationships, the challenges of parenting, or managing work-related stress. My aim is to provide a warm and nurturing environment where you feel genuinely understood, and we can work collaboratively to help you achieve clarity, balance, and healing.

In therapy, my approach is trauma-informed and client-centered at its core. I integrate evidence-based practices like Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy, tailoring each intervention to the unique needs of my clients. I also incorporate Polyvagal Theory and somatic, body-based work to explore the mind-body connection holistically. As a nature lover, I offer ecotherapy and walk therapy, using the healing power of nature to support well-being. I work with individuals, couples, and families, tailoring therapy to fit your unique needs and goals.

Together, we can create a safe, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and valued. Whether you’re navigating complex relationships, healing from past trauma, or exploring personal growth, I am here to guide you with patience, creativity, and unwavering empathy. It is a profound honor to hold your story and be part of your healing journey. No matter how overwhelming your struggles may seem, I believe in your strength to rise, to heal, and to uncover the meaning waiting within. Even in life’s darkest moments, there is a spark of hope, and you don’t have to search for it alone. Let’s walk this journey together, step by step, as we find light and beauty along the way.
