I provide empathic, effective and thought-provoking individual and couples therapy to adolescents and adults.

Sensitivity isn’t a weakness. It’s awareness. The same intuition that made you feel “too much” growing up is the exact thing that helps you spot what’s real now.

Don’t let the gaslighters make you feel crazy. Your sensitivity is your super power. You just gotta learn to hone it, listen to it, and then guide yourself with it (instead of it guiding you) 💛

People-pleasing feels kind, but at its core it’s self-betrayal dressed up as “being nice.” People-pleasing isn’t kindness; it’s hiding who we are so others stay comfortable. Confidence means showing up honest, even if it risks someone’s approval.

Reminder: Your worth is immeasurable. Never let anyone undermine your value or make you feel less than. You are deserving of love, response, and every opportunity life has to offer.

Ever feel the urge to disappear after you’ve hurt or disappointed someone, accidentally or not?

That’s avoidance. And while it might feel safer in the moment, it often creates more distance and deeper wounds.

The truth is: relationships are strengthened not by perfection, but by repair.

When you choose to STAY, you build trust faster than if you pull away.

It’s hard. It’s vulnerable. But it’s worth it.

💛 You don’t have to do it perfectly. You just have to show up.

This is the face of a man who really didn’t want to go to the gym—but went anyway.

Not because of toxic hustle culture.
Not because of guilt.
But because I promised myself I would show up.

You can show up with love!
Even when it’s hard.
Even when it’s uncomfortable.

You’ve got this. 💪🏾

Are you tired of letting your insecurities run the show? Welcome to Loving Your Awkward Self!

I understand the struggle of growing up at the intersection of q***r, BIPOC, and first generation identities; and I aim to help others with similar experiences become more confident in themselves. I think my experiences have taught me a lot, and I would love to share more of that information within this community!

If you resonate with any or all of these demographics, I invite you to join in on our discussions!
