WELCOME
Life doesn’t always work out as you plan. There are times that you may hit a rough patch and need a little extra support. Sometimes your social circle is enough, but there may be times when you need more.
My specialty is working with people going through changes, whether it is life transitions such as divorce or job change, new or worsening health conditions, grief, or loss. I am skilled at working with people in crisis, and those with anxiety.
I have a passion for supporting People of Color populations, and have the lived experience of being raised in a family whose culture of origin is different than the majority culture.
I believe in a collaborative therapeutic relationship as you really are the expert in your life. I look forward to offering support and joining you in your journey.

Getting a new diagnosis or trying to manage a chronic illness is stressful.

Life changes can be difficult to manage, whether it is a change in career, transition to higher education, following a partner to a new city because of their job, divorce, or anything else that is causing you stress.
Anxiety
I believe in a holistic approach and combines talk therapy with bio-feedback to make sure we are treating both your mind an body.
