I am a person of color and I help clients process generational and systemic issues. My approach I use EMDR and IFS to help rewire the nervous system. I help clients address fundamental issues of identity. I use DBT as a way of centering clients through mindfulness. My communication style I use humor, vulnerability, and honesty to talk to about issues. I am direct but gentle in my communication style. I focus on the person in the context of the issue. My journey to mental healthcare I started out as a client myself. I have worked through many similar issues in my therapy journey. I took lessons I learned along the way and use them in therapy. My goals for you I am client-centered and I let clients determine if they are reaching goals or not. I am supportive of clients in their choices and affirm their vision of therapy.
