Get Started

Life can be very challenging, and sometimes we may need to seek support in order to address or manage those challenges. Have you been feeling stuck or scattered? Do you find yourself uncertain about your sense of self or the relationships in your life? Are you hurt from past problems or scared of future ones? These are all concerns that I feel called to help with as a therapist.

I use a relational approach in therapy, where both I and my client(s) will work together in a shared space without judgment. The specific modalities that I operate from are person-centered therapy and psychodynamic therapy. In terms of couples work, I lean towards emotion-focused therapy. As a therapist, I balance authenticity and understanding with feedback and coping strategies, and as a neurodivergent, queer person of color, I am personally familiar with how different types of trauma intersect with different identities. I feel comfortable working with all racial ethnicities, sexual orientations, gender identities, disability statuses, and consensual relationship styles ages 18 and up.

Outside of my therapy role, I am an avid reader, gamer, and dancer with a habit for baking desserts that I probably shouldn’t eat solo. You’ll probably find me going to the movie theater by myself or hypothesizing outfits at a thrift store.
