I am a licensed intuitive psychotherapist and healer. I hold a master’s degree in Professional Counseling with over 14 years of clinical counseling experience. I am dedicated to assisting in connecting with their most authentic self, life purpose, and joy. I believe that truly living a heart-centered life begins with forming a loving emotional bond with oneself. To fully embrace self-love, we must first understand our emotions and how they shape our thoughts and actions. My role in your spiritual journey is to help you cultivate deeper self-awareness, align with your highest self, and create a life of abundance and fulfillment.
I hold the belief that every human being is divine and possesses a unique blueprint for this lifetime. In our work together, I offer ongoing support that includes spiritual counseling, energetic healing, mindfulness, meditation, and other spiritually guided therapeutic techniques to help align with your soul path.

Approach Description: My goal is to assist clients in releasing emotional blockages, reconnecting with their inner wisdom, and aligning with their highest path. I am deeply committed to serving BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, and creating a sacred space where healing and self-discovery can flourish. My mission is to empower clients to live with greater love, spiritual purpose, and authenticity.
Couples seek my guidance to navigate communication challenges, recurring conflicts, emotional disconnection, and a desire to reignite friendship and passion. My approach allows partners to break free from familial and generational relationship patterns, fostering emotional reconnection and a more harmonious, heart-centered bond. While I integrate the Gottman Method as a foundational framework, my clients are especially drawn to the spiritual and intuitive elements of my practice, which support deeper transformation.
Beyond couples therapy, my work extends to individuals seeking emotional and spiritual healing. I blend traditional therapeutic methods—such as Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral, and Attachment theories—with Psychospiritual Psychology and holistic healing modalities.
