My goal is to help folks gain insight, learn new coping strategies, and increase their self-confidence, self-compassion, and self-advocacy. We will discuss your concerns through the lens of your identities, lived experiences, and unique contexts.

My practice is mindfulness-based with a holistic approach: nurturing your mind, body, spirit, & being present with yourself & the world around you. We may explore your childhood, relationships & difficult experiences to help you learn about yourself.
help you find new ways to relate to the world and to enable you to embrace your experiences more fully and bravely. We will explore the experiences that have made you who you are, both the good and the difficult, and work toward who you want to be.
