What working with me is like
In our work together, I seek to create a safe and open environment to explore your experience. I strive to be collaborative and nonjudgmental as we work towards your goals and engage in the process of healing. I believe the therapeutic relationship can be a vehicle for healing and transformation. I invite honest feedback about therapy and our work together. I strive to bring my authentic self into each session and will continue to encourage you to be you.

Important about me
As a therapist, I seek to understand your experience and how you relate to yourself, others, and culture/society. I’m curious about your intersecting experiences and how you cope with challenges. In our work together, I strive to work towards genuine growth and self-understanding while developing coping skills and needed support. As a multicultural queer therapist, I am dedicated to understanding the nuances of identity and integrating a social justice-informed approach.
