Introduction

Life can become complicated to handle when we experience loss, abrupt changes, trauma or conflict with family and friends. If you’ve experienced events that have led to an increase in worry/fear, caused your esteem to plummet, or you find it difficult to manage feelings of sadness or irritability, then therapy can be a great step towards transformative healing. Perhaps you’re looking for a culturally-responsive therapist for yourself or your teen who understands the connection between the changes in one’s mood and the challenge of navigating various (and sometimes oppressive) social and family contexts. My work with clients is a deeply humbling experience, as I’m aware your decision to seek support communicates courage and trust. I value your decision to prioritize yourself and will work with you to meet your goals at your own pace. If you believe we may be a good fit, please contact me via email or phone when you’re ready. I look forward to creating the safe space that you need for yourself and/or your family to work toward the change you aspire to see.
