About me

Life is tough and so are you, but we can’t be tough forever. Together we can help you come into better contact with your emotions, goals, and self. If you’ve been looking for a safe, trauma-informed, and culturally competent therapist, this might be the place for you.

I've lived in Berlin for the past couple of years and completed my masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Art Therapy while doing so. Before that, I was a graphic designer living in the United States. I am no stranger to change and the difficulties that come with it—I wish to be the person I needed during times of adversity.

I focus on working with People of Color, immigrants, and Queer/LGBTQIA+ clients going through depression, anxiety, burnout, self-esteem issues, life transitions, and personal growth. I combine talk therapy with art making, mindfulness, self-reflection, CBT, DBT, and EFT aligned concepts. My approach is typically insight-oriented and focuses on your personal journey. We can still work together if you are only interested in talk therapy!

If you do not see yourself reflected in my specialties and would still like to work together, I'd be happy to have a quick intro call to discuss.

I work both in-person and online. In-person sessions are held in either Neukölln or Prenzlauerberg.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Art therapyRecommended for those who feel more comfortable expressing emotions through creativity and want to explore their feelings through art rather than talking.
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
Gestalt therapyRecommended for those who want to focus on the present and take responsibility for their feelings and actions to promote personal growth.

I prefer a humanistic, client-centered approach to my practice. I utilize my unique experiences and positionality to better understand those of the people I work with.
