I have worked with diverse populations and clients of different backgrounds. I also have experience in community outreach; as a community support specialist.

I've always been fascinated by the human story. How we make sense of our experiences, how we grow, and how we find our way forward. That curiosity, paired with a deep care for people, is what brought me to this work.

With degrees in Social and Behavioral Science and Psychology, I've built a well-rounded foundation for understanding human behavior from multiple angles. My path has included research, mentorship, community work, and my own lived experience. All of these shape the lens I bring to therapy.

In session, I show up with curiosity, compassion, and a bit of edge. I believe healing doesn't have to be cold or clinical. It can be real, reflective, sometimes messy, and even a little bit humorous. My goal is to create a space where you're seen, supported, and challenged. A space where you're reminded that growth is possible, even when it feels slow.
