My approach to therapy
I provide trauma informed care which means I view trauma through the lens of how our environment and culture play a significant role in how we understand and process acute and chronic trauma and traumatic events.
I highlight adaptation over symptoms. I emphasize resilience over pathology.
I strive, in my delivery of mental health and in my mental health community, to decolonize our ways of being and to dismantle colonial systems (our field included).
I provide EMDR therapy and integrate EMDR Therapy into Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) amongst other evidenced based practices as well as mindfulness practices.
My areas of healing expertise are:
Trauma and complex trauma
Oppression trauma
Anxiety
Grief and loss
Inner child healing
Perinatal/postpartum mood disorders
Generational trauma
Cultural stress
Life transitions
Perinatal/postpartum trauma
Adult Individual Therapy—Virtual Only
I enjoy working with adult clients whether this is your first time in therapy, or you have received therapy in the past. I specifically focus on marginalized communities, BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities because we need support and healing too.
If you are in the space to begin addressing the roots trauma created, then I may be the therapist that can guide that journey.
