Specializes in Anxiety, Cultural Issues/Racial Stress +6 moreTogether, we will foster a deeper understanding of you and cultivate resilience to cope with life's ups and downs. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and a profound belief in the human capacity for growth and transformation. I recognize that life can be demanding, especially when you feel like you’re stuck or barely moving toward the places you really want to be. Taking that first step towards seeking support is an act of self-compassion. If you need help finding the voice or speaking the language of loved ones, allow me to guide your steps... and your words!Next available:Wed Aug 19 @ 4PM
