CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE AND TRAUMA-INFORMED APPROACH TO THERAPY
As a therapist, I believe that healing and personal growth occur when therapy is grounded in scientific evidence and deeply attuned to each individual’s unique cultural background and lived experiences. My therapeutic approach centers on providing a culturally sensitive, evidence-based, and trauma-informed space that facilitates healing.


Each individual’s cultural identity powerfully shapes their worldview, values, and life experiences. Regardless of whether it’s tied to your ethnicity, religion, gender, sexuality, or socioeconomic status, your culture profoundly influences how you approach and cope with mental health challenges.



That’s why I make it a priority to understand your personal story and cultural background deeply. This allows me to provide therapy that fully respects your unique values and traditions, honors your identity, and acknowledges relevant cultural nuances – without imposing any unfounded assumptions. I aim to offer mental health support that feels genuinely relevant and empowering to you.
By drawing from research-backed therapeutic methods, I can provide interventions that are proven effective. My approach utilizes evidence-based modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Somatic Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to offer tailored techniques that facilitate lasting change. These flexible methods adapt to your individual needs as your journey progresses.

Trauma can take many forms, stemming from childhood experiences, systemic oppression, or unexpected life events, and can have profound, enduring impacts on one’s emotional and physical well-being. My trauma-informed approach prioritizes safety, choice, and empowerment throughout the therapeutic process.



This involves acknowledging the influence of trauma on your life, moving at a pace that feels comfortable for you, and cultivating an environment where you feel truly understood, supported, and never re-traumatized.


I strive to create a safe and transformative therapeutic relationship by blending cultural sensitivity, evidence-based practices, and a trauma-informed perspective. Together, we will explore your challenges using tools that promote resilience, self-compassion, and empowerment.
