About
I am passionate about making sure that marginalized communities and groups have access to quality mental health care. In my work, I specialize in trauma recovery and supporting you as you as your journey through healing. My approach is to make every effort to come from a person-centered lens. I have training in a range of clinical interventions including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).My approach to clinical work is collaborative and integrative. I see you and myself as collaborators in your journey to achieve the goals that will lead to a greater quality of life. I empower you to take up space in you therapeutic partnership as I believe this leads to them feeling more capable of taking up space in your own personal life.When I am not wearing the hat of a psychologist, I am a pet parent to two Yorkie Chihuahuas. I love traveling and am a self-proclaimed foodie and culture enthusiast.
I am drawn to working with autistic and neurodivergent individuals because I saw how many people, especially women and people of color, spent years feeling misunderstood, overlooked, or mislabeled. I value helping clients make sense of their experiences in a way that feels validating rather than pathologizing. I enjoy creating a space where clients can feel safe, understood, and more connected to who they are, while recognizing both the challenges they face and the strengths they bring into the world.
I approach my work from a place of curiosity, compassion, and deep respect for each person's lived experience. I strive to create an environment where clients feel comfortable being fully themselves, especially individuals who may have spent years feeling misunderstood or overlooked. My focus is on helping clients recognize patterns, build self-understanding, and identify the strengths they already possess while supporting them in navigating areas of difficulty with greater clarity and confidence.
