As a licensed therapist in Nevada, I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on creating a compassionate, affirming space where clients can explore personal growth, healing, and self-discovery.

I specialize in addressing a wide range of emotional experiences, including depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and self-esteem challenges. My approach is deeply rooted in understanding each person's unique journey, with particular expertise in supporting diverse communities, including LGBTQ+ individuals, immigrants, and those navigating complex personal transitions.

My therapeutic work focuses on helping clients develop meaningful communication skills, overcome isolation, explore life purpose, and heal from past experiences. I'm committed to providing culturally responsive care that honors each individual's identity, background, and personal strengths. Whether you're struggling with workplace stress, relationship challenges, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I'm here to support your path toward emotional wellness.
