Introduction

I want you to ask yourself is it important for you to have a therapist who shares or understands your perspectives on gender equality, social justice, and empowerment? Are you someone who wants to explore how societal structures, power dynamics, and gender roles affect individuals' mental health and well-being? We are living in a society where women are struggling with balancing the pressures of conforming to certain beauty standards, balancing careers & families among other societal expectations. These pressures can causes a lot of anxiety, depression and other emotional issues. I provide a collaborative therapeutic relationship where your experiences and perspectives are validated and respected. We can explore identity, relationships, and life choices through the lens of feminist theory while incorporating other evidence-based practices like motivational interviewing, DBT & CBT to reach your specific goals. I understand how challenging it can be to navigate life’s difficulties, especially when dealing with issues like personal trauma or emotional struggles. I’m here to offer a supportive, empowering environment where your experiences are validated and your strengths are nurtured. Together, we can work towards your goals & build the life you envisioned.
