Nice to meet you

When you reflect on your life, do feelings of being undervalued or misunderstood arise? Do you find yourself striving for perfection or approval, making it difficult to clock out? Perhaps you're fed up with this pattern but unsure how to break it. I work from an integrative and culturally informed lens, specializing in supporting women of color as they process the impact of the past on their present. My experience includes work within the criminal justice system, child welfare, and private practice. I support you on your journey of healing and self-discovery.
