My Approach to Therapy

I am available to offer a space where you can feel heard, seen, and supported while navigating life experiences. I’m grounded in a collaborative and humanistic approach that builds on your strengths, honors your culture and identities, and supports you in creating new paths that fit who you are and where you want to go. I respect and value the different backgrounds, traditions, and experiences that shape who you are. I take an integrated approach to therapy because I know every person is unique and deserves support that fits their individual needs. I also bring in the value of peer counseling, recognizing the importance of community support. I have a special interest in working with adults who are navigating depression, trauma, and seeking counseling for co-occurring challenges. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), motivational interviewing (MI), internal family systems (IFS), and person-centered therapy. I offer weekly, in-person and virtual, one-hour counseling sessions. Whether you're new to therapy or returning, my goal is to create a nonjudgmental, safe space where you feel supported to reconnect with yourself and make lasting change.
