Values

Equitable and culturally responsive mental health care is essential for fostering trust and promoting meaningful healing. I am dedicated to breaking down barriers to care and creating a space where every individual feels valued and supported, no matter their background or circumstances.

The systems we live in deeply impact our mental health. Discrimination, inequities, and systemic oppression create significant emotional burdens. In therapy, I strive to provide a space where these realities are acknowledged and challenged, empowering you to advocate for yourself and others while working toward personal and collective liberation.

Our identities and experiences shape how we move through the world and how we experience mental health. Recognizing the interconnected nature of these identities is vital in therapy. I honor the complexities of who you are, embracing your story as a source of strength and resilience.

Every client’s story is unique, shaped by their cultural background and life experiences. I approach therapy with openness, curiosity, and a commitment to learning from you. This ensures that our work together reflects your values, culture, and lived experiences.

Safety and trust are the foundation of healing, especially for those who have experienced trauma. My approach prioritizes your emotional and physical well-being while helping you reconnect with your inner strength. Together, we work to understand and reduce the impact of trauma, fostering resilience and a sense of empowerment.

Mental health is deeply connected to all aspects of life—our thoughts, emotions, bodies, and relationships. My approach reflects this interconnectedness, incorporating practices that nurture balance and authenticity so you can build a thriving and meaningful life.

Therapy is most effective when it is a partnership. You are the expert on your life, and my role is to guide and support you in discovering your inner strength. Together, we’ll work toward your goals in a way that feels right for you, fostering confidence and self-empowerment.

Connection with others can be a powerful force for healing. Whether through family, cultural practices, or community, shared experiences often play a vital role in personal growth. I aim to help you rediscover the strength that comes from belonging and connection as part of your healing journey.

Transparency and honesty are cornerstones of a strong therapeutic relationship. I am committed to providing care that is rooted in trust, ethical practice, and mutual respect, so you feel safe and supported every step of the way.
