Nice to meet you
As a therapist, my mission is to make therapy accessible and safe for everyone, no matter their background, beliefs, identity, or history. My practice is compassionate, culturally competent, and incorporates my clinical and personal values seamlessly. In my work, I use evidence-based tools to assist clients in connecting to their bodies in a world where they're taught to do the opposite. My background in therapy, along with my person-centered approach, drives my work in helping clients understand, process, and ultimately heal from the wounds life has brought them. I am committed to creating a safe and encouraging space for everyone.

Interests
I really love to cook and bake. I have a growing cookbook collection that I’m always dipping into to try new recipes and cuisines. I also love music and spend a lot of time making playlists for friends with new music that reminds me of them.
