I am strength-based and person-centered, incorporating narrative, intersectional and
womanist theories, all intertwined with solution focused and accountability. I practice
holistically, providing psychoeducation about the impact of nutrition, hydration, sleep, and
movement on mental wellness. We can work with your inner child to process unresolved
childhood matters, encouraging nurturing, reparenting, playfulness, laughter, creativity, and time
in nature.

Helping people heal is my calling. I intuitively learned how to hold a safe space years
before I knew that I would become an art psychotherapist. I have worked with people with
various abilities as an art instructor, teacher’s assistant, a school secretary, employment
specialist, community health and political organizer, and legal assistant. I know how critical
emotional wellness is to maintain a balanced healthy life, as I would often speak with people
about personal matters impacting their lives.

As a member of a marginalized group, I was inspired to reject the mainstream oppressive
narrative in my graduate research. I created a methodology for a unique group healing
experience that has resulted in reprocessing and releasing destructive narratives that also
decreases symptomology of racial trauma. I work with all ages, I provide a safe space to address
racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia, and transphobia. I can also support you with anxiety,
depression, feelings of overwhelm, CPTSD, PTSD, identity matters, couples therapy, and family
therapy.

Clients have described feeling empowered, excited, calm, grounded, and lighter after our
sessions. If this resonates, please connect with me, I look forward to learning and growing with
you.‌
