I am a queer Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Los Angeles, CA. Since beginning my journey to become an LCSW, I have always been committed to addressing mental health as it impacts the individual, family, community, and larger society. I believe that our wellness is impacted by the micro and the macro — what is going on in our individual experience and what is going on in the world. My work is informed by my own personal valuation and work in intersectionality, anti-racist practice, and utilizing a queer framework. Whether you’re touching these topics for the first time, or are seeking to deepen your exploration, I look forward to supporting you on your journey. If we end up working together, I will meet you where you are at in navigating through difficult emotions, hard decisions, familial challenges, and life’s uncertainties. When I say “meet you where you are at,” I mean that I want you to feel empowered along your journey in therapy; to unpack and process in your time. It takes a lot of courage to show up, so, I honor that and aim to create a space where you feel heard and supported. Using narrative practices as a guide, we will work together to identify the challenges you face and the values and skills you already possess to move through them. Using mindfulness techniques, we will cultivate tangible practices to approach your situation from a non-judgemental and curious place. Using these skills, my goal is that you will develop the new skills to cope with anxiety, depression, and other mental health symptoms. My greatest hope is that you feel empowered and well-equipped to honor your emotional experiences with compassion.
