Who I Work With: All Students & Latine Student Community Liaison
How I work with students: I offer students a therapeutic space where they can feel seen, heard, and supported without judgement. I’m mindful about meeting students where they are as we collaborate on their mental health goals. My therapeutic style infuses a variety of theories, approaches, and frameworks, including client-centered, strengths-based, solution-focused, multicultural and social justice perspectives, queer/feminist/Black feminist theory, and liberation psychology.
