Snapshot:
Guided by a commitment to collaboration and meeting individuals where they are, I seek to accompany clients as they forge and discover their path toward healing. In therapy, we can explore creating a supportive, relational space specific to who each client is, their needs, and their internal wisdom. Clients can then use this space to process and reconnect to their body, emotions, experiences, truths, hopes, challenges, and strengths, with the aim of helping folks build a life they truly desire. Within this context, I seek to hold intentional space to examine intersecting experiences of oppression and privilege that impact clients’ lives.

Whether facing challenges at school, in family or elsewhere in community, I work with clients to weave, unweave, and reweave the ways they hold their past, create presence in their present, and construct achievable goals for the future. It is my delight and priority to support clients in reconnecting with joy, strength, internal and communal power, as well as their role in individual and joint liberation.
