When making the complex and vulnerable choice to begin therapy, you should be able to trust your therapist and feel safe sharing your story. This is why compassion and empathy are my priorities when building our therapeutic alliance. Together, we will collaborate on an individualized plan for change and growth that is consistent with your values and cultural identities.

Every human is a unique mix of identities, experiences, fears, dreams, and values. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I am well-versed in theory and operate from a foundation of science. However, I also believe that it is essential to recognize the humanity behind everyone’s struggles and actions. Instead of prescribing one method or strategy, I pull different theories together and collaborate with you to craft a healing journey as unique as you are. I set three goals for myself in every session: bearing witness to your story, approaching everything with genuine curiosity, and going beyond empathetic listening to dig deeper and create real change.
As a First-Generation Queer Therapist of Color who has experienced discrimination and racism, I offer validation to my clients’ lived experiences. Social justice and advocacy are key facets of my professional identity. Whether it be on a large scale with system wide policy change, or a small recognition of how systems oppress marginalized communities within the therapeutic space, ensuring that your story is honored and heard is vital to my approach.
