A bit about me and my counseling style...

​

My life joys 

One of my greatest joys in life is helping people feel better about themselves and their lives - increasing their self-confidence, finding joys in the world, process their last relationships and/or search for new relationships, ADHD, and/or Autism, exploring their sexual and gender identities, learning to manage their symptoms of anxiety, or any aspect a person wants to discuss. My favorite topics are neurodiversity (I'm an ADHDer; and I completed the training and hours to be ADHD certified, just waiting on certification), relationships, especially LGBTQ+ (I'm pansexual), and helping people find meaning and direction in their lives. 

 

Another joy of mine is simply listening, learning, and holding space. I truly love hearing people talk and listening to their stories. I will admit, that this is so true that I love reality TV romance shows - and now I make TikToks and Instagram reels on the warning signs I see on them!

​

Listening to people

Hearing what people think about what is going on in their relationships and in their lives truly facsinates me. I personally experienced a marriage with intimate partner violence, so I am keenly aware of how it feels to experience an imbalance of power and control in a relationship, to the feeling of absolute destruction getting out of that relationship, and what it takes to grow into living a life in graceful self-power. I have also completed the WA state Domestic Violence 101 Advocacy Training.

 

I listen to people to hear what they are saying through words, tones, facial expressions, body language, and even silence. I’m not afraid to gently call it out when I notice a discrepancy between any of those items, and if the client wants, to use that awareness as a jumping off point for deepening our discussions.

 

Social Justice 

One of my other passions is social justice. I stay up to date on the regular fights that regular people are fighting against every day just to live their lives.

 

I organized phone banks and caucuses for Bernie Sanders, and was elected my precinct caucus delegate. I marched, learned, and listened at the CHOP almost every day it existed, and stood as an ally on Juneteenth to protect space for Black people. At the end of that summer, I went to school in Miami, where I later worked in an internship where I was fortunate to work with, and learn from, clients in the African and Latin diasporas and its intersections.

 

My aim is to continue prioritizing work uplifting people identifying as BIPOC and/or LGBTQ, as they arrive at my practice. I am proud to say the diversity of clients in my practice reflects a greater diversity than that of Seattle. I am also part of the Living Room collective, a group of Seattle therapists centering our work on anti-racist and decolonizing principles. For free counseling for BIPOC folx, please see Deconstructing Mental Health (providers, also consider joining this movement).
