Having experienced for years, the detrimental aspects of not seeing mental health professionals who look like me, I decided to put in the work to be the change I needed to see. My dedication to providing mental health services is intentional not only in upholding the importance of representation, but predominantly in hopes that I can help break down barriers, so all individuals, especially people of colour, may feel seen, heard, and cared for.
My passion and role as a therapist is to help clients in overcoming the barriers preventing them from feeling like their best selves. This is often directly correlated to their relationships to themselves, others, and the outside world. Because of these barriers, individuals often neglect to recognize their own strengths, and are not allowed a space of vulnerability and care, which is usually when situations become heightened, overwhelming, and seemingly too much to bear.
I believe in strength-based approaches to healing. We are the masters of our own healing, and I am there to help guide.
Within this, I hope to help you feel empowered as you find your strength, to heal from life’s overwhelming situations, so you may find growth in yourself.
