Biography
I’m a clinical mental health counselor-in-training and experienced school counselor who supports children, teens, and young adults through stress, anxiety, identity exploration, and trauma. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally grounded, and focused on presence over perfection. I provide a safe, affirming space to build confidence, strengthen coping skills, and move toward healing.
