Pre-Licensed Therapist

Not Accepting New Clients

My practice is centered on understanding you; your past, your identity, your beliefs and values, and how it informs your current story.

I take time to develop a strong therapeutic connection in order to understand fully. I have a deep passion for wanting to serve marginalized communities. Especially, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ community, and 1st/2nd+ generation of immigrants. I enjoy working with people pleaser, the overthinkers, the perfectionists. As well as inner-child healing, deepening intuition, resentment, black and white thinking. I am comfortable balancing gentleness & directness so that you feel heard while still moving towards change.

You're the expert of your life and I'm here as a compassionate guide. I want to empower you in making sense of your life, goals, and self. We will not only nurture what is inside you, but uncover new perspectives and/or solutions. You can expect a dynamic that honors the journey that has brought you both here with curiosity, humor, empathy and accountability.

All humans deserve someone who can sit alongside them—without judgement—and feel seen, valued, and challenged. This shit is and can be tough, and you're not alone. You are brave for reaching out for support. I promise that you have the answers within yourself and my role is to help you unveil it–layer by layer–so that you can bring your best self forward.

"We think that the point is to pass the test or overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don't really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again... The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen. Room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy"
