On my path as a therapist and healer, one mantra has stayed close to my heart: You are the expert of your life. This simple truth guides everything I do—because I believe your story, your voice, and your wisdom matter deeply. My role is to walk alongside you as you reconnect with your agency, align with your truest self, and explore what healing looks like on your own terms. Rooted in mindfulness and intention, I aim to co-create a space that feels grounding, expansive, and real—where you can challenge old patterns, grow into your values, and care for the version of you that is learning to thrive. As a Person of the Global Majority living with ADHD and anxiety, I know how exhausting it can be to move through a world that was not built to hold all of who you are. I show up to this work with deep respect for your lived experience, while gently naming the systemic and cultural forces that shape our lives. I approach therapy through a decolonial, neurodivergent-affirming lens—supporting you in moving toward radical self-acceptance, embodied healing, and sustainable care. A little more about me: I am a 1.5-generation, neuroqueer Afro-Latina deeply passionate about facilitating authentic, communal and holistic healing for adults that identify as QTBIPOC, first/second generation immigrant, 2SLGBTQIA+, or neurodivergent. While I completed a Master of Education in Counselor Education with a concentration in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I am wholly committed to a decolonial and liberatory-focused approach to therapy and an active dismantling of the oppressive systems that typically exclude bodies of culture and People of the Global Majority. I work alongside adults struggling with trauma, anxiety, grief, and stress, including racial stress and intergenerational trauma. I mainly use a collaborative, person-centered, strengths-based and parts-work informed approach, while connecting the body/mind with somatic and mindfulness practices. I am grateful to offer an inclusive sliding scale fee, as I am passionate about enhancing accessibility for all to experience radical and holistic healing. I believe everyone deserves freedom from the daily stresses of surviving in a capitalist-oriented society, even if just for 50 minutes. I consider our time working together as a partnership in healing. I meet you where you are in a brave and supportive space to embrace, express, and connect with yourself. This space is for you—to feel, to question, to root, to rise. If you feel called to incorporate intuitive, spiritual, or ancestral practices into our therapeutic work together, feel free to let me know how I can best and holistically support you towards your guided path to healing. I am currently practicing under the clinical supervision of Tiffany Luke, LPC, CPCS, Certified EMDR Therapist, Certified Holistic Therapist, TCYM, CYT-300
