About me

As a licensed therapist in California and North Carolina, I specialize in supporting young adults, and adults through life's complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping individuals cultivate self-love, navigate communication challenges, and heal from harmful perpetual cycles

With expertise in depression, anxiety, and relationship dynamics, I provide compassionate guidance for those experiencing mood disorders, life transitions, and attachment struggles. My therapeutic style emphasizes understanding individual experiences while empowering clients to develop resilient coping strategies.

Drawing from a deep commitment to cultural responsiveness, I create a supportive environment where clients can explore their unique journeys of personal growth. I believe in meeting each person exactly where they are, offering genuine support and collaborative pathways toward emotional wellness.

My practice is rooted in understanding the nuanced experiences of the individual, with a particular focus on helping individuals build self-esteem, process difficult emotions, and develop meaningful connections. Together, we'll work to transform challenges into opportunities for profound personal transformation.
