With a passion for helping individuals thrive and blossom, I have dedicated nearly a decade of my career to guiding clients towards personal growth and emotional well-being. Equipped with a master's degree in professional counseling and a diverse range of clinical experiences, my journey in therapy has taken me from private practice settings to college and university counseling centers. Throughout my practice, I have had the privilege of working with clients facing various concerns, drawing from a developmental approach to therapy. I find great joy in assisting individuals at different stages of their lives, particularly in the realms of self and identity discovery, and how it interplays with the challenges they encounter. My areas of expertise encompass identity development, trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions and adjustments, interpersonal and relational concerns, women’s issues, emotional intelligence, grief, as well as providing LGBTQIA+ and poly affirming support. I deeply understand the complexities of the human mind and heart, and it is my mission to provide you with a safe and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences freely. I embrace and celebrate the diversity of my clients, including those who identify as part of the Q+ and BIPOC communities. Throughout our therapeutic journey together, you can expect culturally sensitive and affirming care that ensures you feel seen, heard, and valued. I firmly believe that every person possesses an innate capacity for growth, resilience, and transformation. It is my privilege to walk alongside you on your unique journey, offering unwavering support and guidance. Beyond my professional expertise, I bring a genuine, warm, and empathetic presence to our therapeutic relationship. I firmly believe in the power of authentic connection, and I am dedicated to creating a space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. By fostering self-awareness and equipping you with practical tools, I aim to empower you with the skills necessary to overcome challenges and thrive in all areas of life. Remember, blooming begins with the decision to seed your own growth. Together, let us embark on a path of self-discovery, healing, and fulfillment. I eagerly await the opportunity to accompany you as you unfold into the remarkable individual you are destined to become.
