Personal Invitation
I am passionate about supporting and advocating for people from all identities and backgrounds. I believe our individuality—shaped by our environments, experiences, and cultures—is something to be honored. I’ve learned that simply listening with a kind ear and an open heart can make a profound difference. I am open to both conventional and contemporary paths to healing and self-discovery. We are all trying to navigate a challenging, confusing world, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you.
