Hi! I’m glad you’re reaching out for support with your mental health.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist with 11+ years of clinical experience. I offer online therapy sessions and also work as a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with The Healing Space, an online platform providing accessible mental health care.My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and collaborative. I believe that while our experiences shape us, we also have the capacity to rewrite our narratives in meaningful ways. In therapy, I aim to help individuals uncover their own stories of resilience and growth beyond diagnostic labels.Alongside my clinical work, I have created Project She Still Rises, a letter-writing initiative for women navigating separation and divorce. I also care deeply about issues, such as animal welfare, social justice and dignity in mental health care. When I’m not in session, you can find me talking to my dogs or tending to my plants.
