Commitment to Inclusive Practices & Anti-Racism 

​

As a mental health professional, social worker, and mom- I believe it is my responsibility to practice ethical, justice-driven values through my clinical work in the pursuit of health equity for my clients, families, and our community. I hope to foster a welcoming, anti-oppressive, anti-racist, and LGBTQIA+ affirming environment for all incoming and current clients.
