Description
As a third culture kid, I understand cultural nuances and intergenerational trauma. My experiences and training has prepared me to work with individuals who have experience relational trauma; intergenerational trauma; and oppression. My purpose is to re-learn what connection is and how to reconnect to my ancestors, and I hope to support others in their reconnection journey, as well. My theoretical orientation is anti-racism; anti-oppressive practice; and Black feminism. I work with people who have experience the impact of colonization, as well, individuals who experience 2SLGTBQ+ oppression.
