Seeking help for oneself can be challenging. That’s why I provide a strengths-based, calming, caring, supportive atmosphere that allows people to engage in the therapeutic or consultation process from a place of acceptance, peace and clarity. I want clients to feel understood and valued for who they are, even if they have made life choices that did not have the most positive outcome. I also believe that everyone is capable of growth and development if they are given the tools and are willing to adjust their behavioral patterns. I am committed to helping my clients live a life that gives them a sense of pride and assurance that who they are, is all they need to be!

​

Through a lens of social justice and equity, I focus on affirming experiences for all people with specific emphasis on people of color and other marginalized identities; unpacking the impact of power, privilege, and structural oppression; and deconstructing challenges related to acculturation or first-generation challenges. Additionally, I provide skill building in the five core competency areas of social and emotional learning: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision making.
