I believe that therapy is a supportive setting that can help you become the best version of yourself. As a BIPOC, queer, and kink-informed provider, I understand what it’s like to feel unseen, unheard, or misunderstood by providers when you’re in need and seeking a helping hand. By taking a decolonized approach while incorporating evidence-based therapeutic modalities, I am effective with helping others confront their personal battles, relationship problems, and other life stressors within an affirming, shame-free framework.

I specialize in intimate and relational therapy where I utilize person-centered methods and mindfulness to help you uncover personal discoveries and solutions tailored to your needs. My clients are supported while exploring and confronting their issues in a space that centers identity and challenges systemic pathologization. As your therapist, my desire is to be seen as a safe haven for you to explore, name, and work through your issues, both personal and relational in nature. I will work with you in a collaborative way so that the therapeutic relationship we create is built off transparency and authenticity.

My goal is to empower you to reveal and use your personal agency. If you’re looking for someone who is empathetic, understanding, and well-versed in helping clients show up as their authentic and free selves, we could work well together.
