Trauma alienates us from ourselves. I love to help clear the rubble so that your true self can emerge, more substantive, wise, and beautiful than before your heart was broken.
Discovering one’s racial identity is a process of introspection, an outward understanding of the social and political privileges in the world, and recognizing the implications that each has on one another as they relate to that individual.
Therapists and counselors make space for clients of color and white clients to understand how their racial identity impacts their lives, what privileges they do and do not have related to race, and how that impacts their mental health.
People exist at different stages in recognizing their racial identity, with some people unaware of how race affects their lives and others acutely aware due to the pervasiveness of discrimination.
Available Treatment Options
Counseling interventions include processing emotions related to racial identity, understanding the implications of the effects of race, and supporting growth and empowerment.

I often use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in my practice. I assist clients in exploring the ways in which they may be stuck in a way of living that is unhelpful and unfulfilling. I help clients tap into their values, reduce avoidance patterns, and compassionately express their thoughts, emotions, and needs in hopes to achieve a more flexible, values-based, and wholesome way of living.
I love working with clients who strive for growth and healing through a collaborative process of self-discovery.
