About me
Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! I know that reaching out for support can feel challenging, or even a little scary, but the fact that you are here means you’re already taking a step toward caring for yourself. Why not take another step and see if we can move forward together?
I work with people on a wide range of challenges, including:
Navigating life transitions and managing stress
Healing past wounds and building self-compassion
Improving self-esteem, communication, and setting healthy boundaries
Understanding your values and aligning your actions with what truly matters
Regulating emotions and finding more balance in everyday life
With my psychology degree and professional experience, I’ve supported many individuals through life transitions, personal challenges, and emotional growth. My education and experience allow me to provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your emotions, share your story, and take meaningful steps toward making peace with yourself and living more authentically.
This is a BIPOC & LGBTQIA+ friendly space, where all identities are welcome, seen, and respected.

Approach
🤝 My Counseling Style As an ACT-based counselor, I help you accept difficult thoughts and emotions without letting them control your life, while guiding you to connect with what truly matters to you and take meaningful steps forward. Together, we’ll explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with mindfulness and self-compassion, helping you respond to stress, anxiety, or self-doubt in healthier ways.
📆 Session Frequency Weekly or bi-weekly sessions are recommended to start, with flexibility to adjust as you progress. We’ll work toward independence at your own pace, ending with a reflective closing session when you’re ready.
