Nice to meet you

As a certified trauma-informed therapist, I work with trauma survivors and individuals seeking culturally responsive care. I believe therapy should be collaborative and honor your voice and choice. I understand that trust must be earned. If given the privilege of being your therapist, we will explore together what brings you to therapy and how I can support you in meeting your treatment goals. As a woman of color of multiracial ancestry, I am particularly passionate about working with multicultural populations and providing person-centered care to people of color.
