Grief counselors and therapists in Laguna Niguel, CA

I’m especially passionate about creating a space where women of color feel seen, respected, and understood. Not just as clients, but as whole people with unique stories, cultures, values, and experiences. Whether you’re navigating relationships, work stress, life transitions, self-worth, or simply feeling overwhelmed, you don’t have to figure it all out alone. You’re welcome here, exactly as you are.

I work with individual adults and certain families who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, sad, lonely, sensitive, anxious, or defeated. If you're feeling heavy by everything going on, or feeling frantic, or having conflict in your relationships or are just feeling lost in any way, I would love to see if I can help! I also work with family units going through transition or strain, such as conflict between a parent and their adult child, or supporting parents who are experiencing difficult things with their child or teen.

I have a lot of experience helping people through loss, whether it's a breakup, losing a job, or a loved one - including loss of a pet, which is a specialty of mine. I have special interest in supporting other therapists, and also community organizers and activists who are engaged in social justice work. Many of my clients are trans or NB, and others are gay, lesbian, or queer. Poly and kink affirming.

I offer telehealth services to clients in California, Idaho, Washington, or Virginia.
