Whether you're navigating questions of belonging, struggling with external challenges, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, therapy can help you untangle the complexities of your experiences and move towards meaningful change

I have worked with people from all walks of life, particularly those navigating cultural identity, systemic barriers, and mental health challenges. Many of my clients have faced difficult life circumstances, whether due to race, class, or feeling like they don’t quite fit in.

Before training as a therapist, I worked closely with vulnerable individuals, including people experiencing homelessness and those struggling with social and economic hardship. I supported people dealing with housing insecurity, trauma, and mental health difficulties, helping them find stability and rebuild their lives. Through this work, I saw firsthand how issues like poverty, discrimination, and unstable living conditions affect mental well-being. This experience shapes my approach as a therapist, offering a space where we can explore both your personal struggles and the bigger picture of what has shaped you.

I also have a background in philosophy, which has given me a deep interest in questions about identity, meaning, and personal growth. Many people come to therapy feeling lost, stuck, or unsure of who they are. My aim is to help you make sense of your experiences, untangle the patterns that may be holding you back, and move towards a greater understanding of yourself.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel truly heard—where your cultural background, personal history, and lived experiences are valued and explored with care. Whatever challenges you're facing, we can work together to help you find clarity and a path forward.
