As a BIPOC therapist with a deep commitment to fostering resilience and healing, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating trauma, OCD, anxiety, and depression. My journey in mental health began with a passion for understanding the complexities of human emotions and experiences. I believe in creating a safe, inclusive space where clients can explore their challenges and find empowerment in their stories. With several years of experience, I have worked with a diverse clientele, helping individuals through hardships such as grief, relationship concerns, and other personal struggles.
I understand that everyone's path is unique, and I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet the specific needs of each individual. My goal is not only to help clients manage but also to facilitate personal growth and foster a deeper understanding of themselves.
If you are looking for a compassionate ally in your mental health journey, I invite you to reach out. Let’s work together to uncover the strengths within you and build a path towards healing and fulfilment.
