About My Clients

My clients tend to be badass, kind, and maybe not know it! They are, or aspiring to be: generational cycle breakers, healing attachment wounds, or seeking alignment with one's values. Are you curious about building insight or ways to self/collectively care? Perhaps we're a fit if you're seeking a therapist who believes and works from a feminist liberation approach, has experience working towards building healthy familial dynamics, and integrates a whole-person & holistic approach to care.

My Background and Approach

I work from a collaborative approach that is social justice & culturally informed. Have you ever thought, "a part of me wants to...or is afraid to..."? I'm a therapist who loves to help detangle, explore, and help create a sense of calm and understanding within and around oneself. I welcome ALL the parts of you. What that looks like is: 1. exploring your journey (how you got to this point in your life now), 2. what's present, and 3. where do you want to go. Sessions are tailored to your unique goals and needs; where we talk about difficult topics, use journaling, body-somatic work, or just talk through things floating around in your mind, I hope to create a safe space of that will allow you to feel empowered, motived to engage intentionally, and express emotions authentically.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I have worked for over a decade in various community organizations, universities/colleges, and non-profits as a therapist, community organizer, and educator. These invaluable experiences gifted me the ability to be person-centered, context-informed, and motivated to value our collective liberation.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
