Hello, I'm Tina
I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist supporting individuals, couples and families who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns they don't fully understand. When life feels out of your control, you deserve compassionate care that meets you where you are.
I specialize in attachment and trauma, two deeply interconnected areas that shape how we experience relationships, emotions and ourselves. When our relationships feel unsafe, unpredictable, or emotionally distant, it can lead to anxiety, depression, and a deep sense of isolation. My work focuses not only on healing the effects of trauma, but also on helping families and couples build secure, connected relationships in the present which creates resilience that spans across generations.
I offer attachment-based, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive therapy that honors your lived experience and creates a space where you feel held with compassion and deeply understood as a whole person.
Therapy can be a place to:
-
Slow down and make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface
-
Feel safer in your relationships, emotions, and body
-
Explore patterns that keep you stuck and begin to meet unmet emotional needs
Together, we’ll work toward clarity, connection, and meaningful change, at a pace that honors your nervous system and your story.

Why Choose Me
I provide a trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and neurobiologically informed approach that takes you deep into uncovering patterns, reclaiming emotional needs, and understanding the protective strategies your nervous system learned and the impact they have on your relationships.
I work with both individuals and couples through a liberation-informed lens that recognizes how oppressive systems, identity, and political injustices impact your emotional health and relationships.
This work is for people who are ready to do deep, meaningful work, break unhelpful patterns, and build stronger emotional connections with others.

I warmly welcome all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, or sexual orientation. My practice is a safe and inclusive space where every relationship is valued, supported, and given the care it deserves. I do not tolerate behavior that harms others or promotes hate.
