I specialize in work with adults and adolescents who are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, who are moving through a life transition, who are exploring their gender identity, gender expression, or sexual orientation, or who have a history of trauma. I especially enjoy working with BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color), queer, and trans people, and individuals in non-traditional, non-monogamous relationship structures.

About me
As a bilingual, bicultural, queer person of color, finding a sense of belonging and safety was always a challenge. But in a moment of crisis I found a wonderful therapist who slowly helped me to reconnect with myself, with my heart, and with the sensations of my own body. And I discovered that this work of helping others meet themselves, and find meaning and belonging in their lives, is something that brings me immense joy.
​
I love holding space for people to get to know themselves, to see themselves fully and with compassion, and to decide for themselves what choices might bring them closer to living a full and meaningful life.
​
My approach to therapy is rooted in anti-oppression principles, which means that I seek to identify and dismantle the systems of oppression within which we are embedded, and through which our hearts, minds, and bodies have been programmed. I love to do this work professionally through my therapy practice, as well as personally and communally.
​
If you're seeking a supportive, safe, and affirming space to explore your own journey, I invite you to connect with me. Together, we can navigate your path towards self-discovery, healing, and creating a meaningful and authentic life.
