Over my years of experience as a counselor, consultant, and coach I have witnessed many tragic situations and very challenging obstacles that people from BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities have had to overcome. A major challenge in some of these individuals' lives is race-based traumatic stress and oppression. Many minorities suffer mentally and physically from the impact of such stigmas and discrimination. Reaching out for help can be difficult under regular circumstances, but when biases (whether implicit or overt) impede one’s progress the situation can become more complex and difficult to overcome.
If you are facing these challenges, my hope is to deeply connect with you and help you reach your full potential so that you have success in reaching your goals. I strive to provide culturally responsive coaching. Everyone has identities influenced by ethnicity, race, gender, religion, age, vocation, nationality, sexual orientation, country of origin, life experiences and more! I am continually educating myself, growing my cross-cultural interpersonal skills, and honoring my clients’ multiple influences. I want to empower you so that you can think more creatively and resourcefully to overcome any obstacles you face, in life or in your workplace. I want to be your ally and advocate. I believe that everyone has the right to fair treatment and pursuit of optimal living. I would love to help you chart a clear course to assert your will, allowing you to experience the fulfilling and enjoyable life you deserve.
