My Approach to Helping

I believe that people are experts in their own lives and make the best decisions available to them with the resources that they have. I am interested in how we interact with and are affected by systems of power, and in how counseling can help decolonize mental wellbeing. My core commitment as a counselor is to affirm your autonomy and to be a witness as you grow and make meaning of your life. I approach therapy with curiosity, and invite you to explore how histories, structures, and intersections shape who you are and what you do. I use metaphors and thought experiments to offer new perspectives. I practice mind-body techniques to identify how emotions and experiences show up in the body as well as the mind. In our work together, I hope you find rich meaning in your experiences, build connection to your community, and make changes that are significant to you.
