As a licensed psychotherapist, I provide an open and affirmative framework with my clients as a relational therapist. I specialize in first-second generational trauma, C-PTSD, and work with QTBIPOC and neurodivergent communities. I always aim to create a genuine, safe, and non-judgmental space, so that we can work towards collaborative introspection. My goal is to help you recognize your own wisdom, to help you facilitate your own self-advocacy, and to be able to guide you on reconnecting with your present/authentic self by healing from past trauma. My framework includes using an integrative, anti-oppressive approach with my clients to be mindful of the complexities of therapy from an intersectional lens. If interested, please feel free to email me to set up a free 15 minute consultation.
