Biography

Too many of us experience alienation, loneliness, and a lack of belonging in this world. This isn’t a personal failing. This is the system failing us. As my client, I
aim to support you in navigating the harm you have experienced in an unjust world, unlearning internalized systems of oppression, and finding self-love that is rooted in collective care. I am deeply invested in building a collaborative relationship that allows us both to discover what affirms you and makes you feel seen, heard, and supported.
I work with individuals and couples, taking an active role in supporting my clients through challenges with trauma, intimacy, belonging, maternity/parenthood, grief and loss, and life purpose and transitions. I am particularly passionate about working with folks navigating intergenerational trauma and (Latinx) immigrant/second generation experiences.
My approach to therapy is eclectic and creative, pulling from various modalities such as psychodynamic, relational, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based
practices. I aim to foster a nurturing and empowering environment in order to
support the unique goals and growth of my clients. If this feels right to you, let’s connect and build together!
