The experiences that I have collected over time in my personal life and training have shaped me and allowed me to view the world through a multifaceted lens. Growing up in a close knit community has taught me the value of relationships and a sense of belonging. I am also aware of the impact of feeling alienated, from others or one’s self, thus began my own therapeutic journey as a teenager which has helped me grow not only as a person but as a professional. I value each person’s experiences and identities and am passionate about helping my clients gain a sense of empowerment in the therapy space as well as in their daily lives. My approach allows me to really get to know my clients and in turn help them to better understand themselves. I always aim to create a foundation of safety to build our therapeutic relationship upon. I understand that humans are complex and thus work therapeutically with all the layers that make us who we are such as race, gender, sexuality and culture. I aim to help my clients build a better relationship with themselves, others and the spaces they find themselves in.
