About My Clients

My ideal clients are adolescents, adults, families, and groups that are having difficulty managing complex emotions within their life. I work with people from all backgrounds, but I want to focus my practice on serving People of Color as I feel there is a lack of mental health spaces where they can feel seen and heard.

My Background and Approach

Therapy is a wonderful journey when you want to learn and grow through what you believe is holding you back. As your therapist I will be here to help you navigate through this journey. Together, we will create a safe space for you to be unapologetically your authentic self and inspire change through self-awareness and self-exploration. I rely on strength-based methods to help you feel empowered as you grow in therapy. I want you to feel seen, understood, and learn how to find and express your true self. As I work with you, I want to help you share your strength with those around you–creating a ripple effect of positive energy. I know what it’s like to live as a person of color and feel like we have to work harder than others just to break even. I want to help you find the power within to break through these barriers.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

When I am not working, I am either planning a trip or catching a flight to explore the world. I enjoy traveling, sunsets, and indulging in major self-care. I am a firm believer that you must find outlets to fulfill your own needs before helping someone find theirs. One way I fill my needs is by teaching at local dance studios–I teach tap, jazz, ballet, and hip hop to ages 8-18.
