Practice Values
A therapist’s approach is deeply shaped by their values and worldview. These core values guide both my personal life and professional practice, serving as the foundation for how I show up in this work with you and the greater community.
Therapy is Intersectional
Intersectionality reminds us that our identities—race, gender, class, sexuality, ability, and more—do not exist in isolation. They overlap in ways that shape how we experience the world and how the world responds to us, often creating layered systems of privilege, oppression, and resilience.
The term intersectionality was coined in 1989 by American legal scholar Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw. Rooted in Black feminist activism, it was developed to highlight how Black women’s experiences were often erased within both feminist and anti-racist movements.
In therapy, an intersectional lens means honoring the full context of a person’s life. It calls us to be socially aware, culturally attuned, and justice-oriented—because healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum.
Therapy is intersectional because identity matters in the work of becoming whole.
Therapy is Political
This practice is founded on anti-racist, decolonizing, and inclusive values, grounded in action, advocacy, and ongoing education.
I believe healing cannot be separated from the social and political systems that shape our lives. In a world impacted by systemic oppression, inequity, and late-stage capitalism; therapy must evolve to not only support individual growth but also challenge harmful structures.
My work incorporates these realities and empowers clients to navigate them while reclaiming agency, resilience, and connection.
Therapy is Relational
Relational connection and safety are the foundations of my therapeutic approach. We work together to move into a growth and healing mindset.
Healing can happen when safety, respect, and relational integrity are present.
Ease the burdens off your heart and shoulders to live more confidently and joyfully.
Therapy is Sexy
In today’s world, cultivating strong, meaningful relationships with friends, family, partners, and community is essential.
Part of caring for our mental health is staying curious—not just about ourselves, but about the people we love. When we approach others with that same mindful curiosity, we create space for deeper connection, vulnerability, and trust.
Emotional wellness isn’t a luxury—it’s foundational. And when we treat it with the same importance as our physical, financial, or spiritual health, something shifts: we show up more fully, more authentically, more powerfully.
That’s the heart of it. Therapy is sexy—because being emotionally available, self-aware, and connected is magnetic as hell.
