Introduction

I work with individuals navigating trauma, life transitions, identity exploration, and emotional overwhelm who are seeking healing, clarity, and meaningful growth. My clients often feel stuck, anxious, or disconnected but are motivated to reclaim their voice, strengthen self-awareness, and move forward with intention. Many are looking for a safe, culturally responsive space where they feel seen and supported. I offer compassionate, trauma-informed counseling using evidence-based approaches like culturally sensitive EMDR. Together, we build a collaborative and empowering relationship that honors your story, strengths, and goals. I specialize in trauma-informed counseling, offering a safe, supportive space for healing. I help clients understand and process the effects of trauma using compassionate, culturally responsive, and evidence-based approaches. My goal is to empower individuals to reclaim their voice, build resilience, and move forward with clarity and confidence. You do not have to suffer in silence. Reaching out for support takes courage, and I honor the trust clients place in me. It is a privilege to hold space for your story and walk alongside you toward healing. If you are ready to take that first step, know that you are not alone—and I am here to help. Please do not hesitate to reach out.
