Values
A therapist’s approach is deeply shaped by their values and worldview. These core values guide both my personal life and professional practice, serving as the foundation for how I show up in this work with you and the greater community.
This practice is founded on anti-racist, decolonizing, and inclusive values, grounded in action, advocacy, and ongoing education.
I believe healing cannot be separated from the social and political systems that shape our lives. In a world impacted by systemic oppression, inequity, and late-stage capitalism; therapy must evolve to not only support individual growth but also challenge harmful structures.
My work incorporates these realities and empowers clients to navigate them while reclaiming agency, resilience, and connection.
Relational connection and safety are the foundations of my therapeutic approach. We work together to move into a growth and healing mindset.
Healing can happen when safety, respect, and relational integrity are present.
Ease the burdens off your heart and shoulders to live more confidently and joyfully.
In today's world, it's about fostering stronger bonds with friends, family, partners, and communities (local and global).
Taking responsibility for our mental well-being includes extending that curiosity to those around us.
Prioritizing emotional support and harmony has become as important as our physical, financial, and spiritual health.
Intersectionality refers to the simultaneous experience of social categories such as race, gender, socioeconomic status, and sexual orientation and how these categories interact to create systems of oppression, domination, and discrimination.
The term 'intersectionality' has its roots in Black feminist activism, and was originally coined by American critical legal race scholar Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw in 1989.
