Professional statement

In a world where self-care is marketed as bubble baths and face masks, I firmly believe the most constructive act of self-care is weekly talk therapy. Our emotional health is as important as our physical health, and yet we often overlook or underestimate the impact it has on our daily life. Whether you’re new to therapy or looking to begin a new chapter in your therapeutic journey, finding a therapist can be intimidating. At our core, we all want to feel validated and understood. I am committed to making therapy a client-centered, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where you can feel safe, seen, and heard.

Together, we’ll explore how social, cultural, and environmental factors influence your emotional state, creating a fuller understanding of where you are today. We’ll start by building a strong, trusting foundation together and will work to identify your unique goals, adapting as we go to ensure our work stays meaningful and aligned with where you are. The beauty of therapy lies in the ability to pivot, revisit, and reestablish our path.


Message to clients

Whether you’re struggling with a sense of self, relationship issues, anxiety, work stress, life transitions, substance use, mood disorders, or depression, I’m here to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your past so you can find more peace in the present and clarity for your future. I vow to celebrate every facet of your identity, and I encourage you to come exactly as you are. I would be honored to be a part of your journey.

My practice offers an honor-based sliding scale ranging from $125-$195. This means that I will not ask for proof of income or other documentation of financial hardship, but will ask that you pay the highest rate that you can afford based on your financial circumstances.
