"Direct," "empathetic," "non-judgmental," and "gentle" is how clients describe my approach. With respect, care, and guidance toward empowerment, my expertise is working with individuals, couples, and families navigating relationship obstacles, adult/child survivors of sexual abuse, BIPOC/PGM and LGBTQ+ clients, women of color, South-Asian clients, and clients from all walks of life. I believe that trust and comfort are the foundation of each client/therapist relationship. This journey, which begins with what I know as a very difficult first step, is about you.
Right here and now, is your chance to begin to enjoy a life that is more satisfying. Throughout this journey, I remain 100% present with you as a facilitator and guide, starting with respect and compassion for your unique experiences, through the achievement of your specific goals.
For decades, I have demonstrated commitment to working with folx from various ethnic/racial groups, socio-economic conditions, and life situations especially in the area of multigenerational and racial trauma, relational violence, PTSD, childhood sexual abuse, infertility, and a multitude of other issues. Please check out my website to know more about me.
