About me
I help individuals navigate life’s challenges through collaborative, evidence-based therapy rooted in compassion and trust.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing trauma-informed, culturally affirming psychotherapy for adolescents, adults, and LGBTQ+ individuals. With advanced training in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and practical experience implementing evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Supportive Therapy, I adapt treatment to meet each client’s unique emotional, cultural, and psychological needs.
I believe healing occurs when therapy validates your identity, honors your lived experience, and supports your growth through compassion and clinical insight. Whether you're navigating trauma, life transitions, identity development, or relationship concerns, I offer a collaborative, safe space to explore challenges and cultivate resilience. My practice is rooted in ethics, cultural humility, and a commitment to accessible, high-quality care.
