My Approach

My counseling approach is eclectic and trauma-informed. I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Through IFS, we explore the different parts of you that make up your internal world. I also incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness practices to support emotional regulation and self-awareness.

I approach this work through a feminist and multicultural lens. Many traditional therapeutic models were developed without fully accounting for the impact of identity, marginalization, and systemic context on mental health. I keep these dynamics in mind and work to meet each client with cultural humility and respect for their lived experience.
