It takes strength and insight to make the first step to seek help for the struggles you are facing. I believe that we all have the inner strength and resilience to face the barriers encountered in life. During our meetings, I will partner with you as you embark on your journey of self-exploration to find your inner strength. My approach to counseling is person-centered, holistic, and collaborative. I will provide a safe space for you to be able to express your authentic self without judgement.

I've been providing counseling services for over 15 years in the DC Metro Area. Above all, I value our therapeutic relationship and your culture. I take time and care in getting to know what's important to you. As a licensed mental health counselor, I specialize in providing helpful and efficient strategies for you to manage anxiety and depression. I am trained in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focus Therapy, and Sexual Identity Issues. LGBTQIA+ individuals often go through periods of questioning their sexual identity, which can cause confusion and stress. Additionally, the “coming out” process, and coping with the reactions of friends and family. I'm here to provide the support and counseling to help you through this process or with any other struggles you may be experiencing.
