I believe therapy is most helpful when it's a hands-on process so I aim to create sessions that end with a tangible tool or goal.

Therapy style
I hold a prior career in art activism and my prior career influences my practice in many different ways. I commit to providing spaces that foster decolonization. My approach includes a lot of transparency and flexibility. I believe therapy is most helpful when it's a hands-on process so I aim to create sessions that end with a tangible tool or goal because sharing our stories is only one piece of the healing process. It’s important for me to share with my clients that I live with chronic mental and physical health issues so I am actively practicing a lot of the same tools I bring forth to clients. I also have over a decade of experience in working with different types of trauma but most notably generational trauma.

Interests
I enjoy animal care. I believe in the value of animals as support systems but I also enjoy supporting animals in need. Like a lot of people, I love to travel but I especially love traveling to Mexico and connecting with my indigenous roots. I like to garden and grow a community with my neighbors.
