Description
I’m a compassionate therapist with 8+ years of experience supporting teens, adults, and couples facing trauma, anxiety, grief, abuse, stress, and substance use. I specialize in trauma, addiction, depression, and anxiety, including PTSD, childhood trauma, and race-based trauma. With couples, I focus on improving communication and connection. My person-centered, integrated approach draws from evidence-based practices to build coping skills, foster emotional regulation, and support healing in a safe, supportive space.
