My goal as a Psychologist and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist is to create a safe, affirming and collaborative space for individuals, couples and families to explore the complexities of life. Therapy can be a daunting experience; therefore, I like to meet people where they are at in their therapy journey. I work from a social justice, multicultural, collaborative, strength-based and relational perspective. I also incorporate humor, mindfulness, coping strategies, cultural humility and highlight individual’s strengths in session.
