I work with children, adolescents (ages 5–18), adults, and elders, with specialized training in child and adolescent counseling and play therapy. My work is grounded in a culturally responsive, trauma-informed lens that recognizes how systemic oppression, generational trauma, and social inequities shape mental and physical health. I also have a strong clinical and research interest in the mind–body connection, particularly how trauma impacts chronic pain, autoimmune conditions, and learning. I integrate somatic and holistic approaches to support healing that honors self-determination, cultural identity, and each client’s lived experience.

I take a holistic, integrative, and client-centered approach grounded in cultural awareness and humility. I draw from CBT, ACT, mindfulness practices, trauma-informed CBT, and somatic work to support the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit. Above all, I aim to show up with authenticity, presence, and care, honoring each client’s unique path and pace in the healing process.
