I know firsthand how life-changing mental health services can be, which led me to become a therapist. I model authenticity by showing up as my quirky self in the space we share, hoping you’ll feel comfortable doing the same. I often use humor to foster connection and comfort. When we work together, I hope we find moments of joy. I have experience treating depression, anxiety, and trauma, and I enjoy working with people from diverse backgrounds, including BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and neurodivergent communities.
