Therapy can be a completely transformative experience when you find a therapist who deeply understands you. So many different painful experiences may bring you to therapy, or maybe you were just curious about it. When you feel comfortable being vulnerable and open, the opportunities for self-discovery and healing are infinite. It is my role to guide you through this process.
I bring a keen awareness of structural and systemic racism, through personal experience and extensive study. I use a strengths-based and client-centered approach to my work with clients. I believe in your ability to grow, change, and heal even in incredibly difficult circumstances. Though I may have more clinical experience, you will always be the expert of your own experiences.
I have previously worked with a diverse range of individuals, couples, and groups on challenges including, but not limited to: racial identity formation, race related trauma, post-partum depression, non-monogamy, dating, familial relationships, career difficulties, adolescent challenges, transitions into adulthood, anxiety, and depression.
I am here to help facilitate healing, growth, and change, but this is a collaboration. Upon starting therapy with me, we will become a team. We will determine your priorities for this process and create a personalized therapeutic plan from there. Beginning therapy can be scary. Seeking out help is a critical first step to healing, so be proud of yourself for even considering it.
