A little about how I work.

You’ve done a lot of growing. So why do the same loops keep showing up?

 

Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, high-functioning, & self-aware—often carrying anxiety, depression, OCD, or relational patterns shaped by culture, identity, family roles, or early responsibility. You may look accomplished on the outside while feeling caught in rumination, people-pleasing, shame spirals, or a persistent sense of misalignment. Therapy becomes a place to slow down, be honest with yourself & metabolize big emotions—so you can begin to live with more clarity, vitality, and self-trust.

​

As a queer person of color, I don’t pretend therapy happens outside of culture, power, or history. I work relationally, blending psychodynamic depth with practical tools for real change. My style is warm, direct, & flexible—humor when it fits, honest challenge when needed. We make room for tenderness and truth as you align with who you want to be, & live it.

 

Therapy with me is a place to exhale. We’ll slow down enough to hear what’s true, make sense of what’s been shaping you, & practice new ways of responding—so life feels less like survival & more like choice. If you’re ready to build a life that’s yours, even when it’s a little uncomfortable, I invite you to schedule a free 25-minute consultation with me.
