Who I Serve
I work with high-performing professionals in law, advocacy, and leadership -- particularly BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals -- who are carrying the weight of vicarious trauma, burnout, survivor's guilt, and systemic injustice.
My clients often feel like they can't slow down, let alone fall apart. They're deeply committed to their work, yet emotionally exhausted and navigating identity-based stress in systems never build for them.
As an EMDR and IFS-trained therapist, I help clients safely unpack what they carry, reconnect with their internal resources, and heal the parts that have long been overextended or unseen.
This is a space where high-achievers can rest, restore, and reclaim themselves.
My Approach
The goal is to empower you to speak your truth, heal, build emotional resilience, and strive to be your best selves. In addition to talk therapy, I integrate a variety of modalities that help you explore the deeper parts of yourself.
Treatment can appear intimidating and unfamiliar to some, but rest assured: you are in a safe space, free from judgment, where compassion, authenticity, and truth come together.
I facilitate your growth and offer practical next steps to greater self-awareness and change.
