About
Being multi-ethnic and growing up in San Diego, CA, I had the opportunity to interact with many diverse cultures. I am passionate about race, cultural, socioeconomic, and equity issues due to my personal experiences and empathizing with others’ experiences. The intersectionality of what makes us unique can also compound our lived experiences. I am committed to continuously learning about the impacts of marginalized communities and supporting those that are systemically oppressed.
My approach is to collaboratively work with individuals and meet them where they are on their physical and mental health journey. I provide a person-centered, humanistic, and collaborative approach in working clients. I have found there is no one-size-fits-all solution, and I focus on partnering with each individual to build body trust, respect, and compassion for ourselves. This approach creates a more peaceful and joyous relationship with ourselves and others.
My goal is to support individuals on their healing journey in understanding of their life experiences. I am honored to do this work and look forward to the opportunity to work with you.
