About "Aloe"
I am ecstatic to provide mental health support through authentic, affirming, and aware relationships that embody connection, safety, and warmth. I strive to build genuine connections with you by understanding your personal motivators for acceptance and change, and building trust by reinforcing those goals rather than my own agenda.
I obtained my Bachelor's Degree from University of Missouri- St. Louis in Interdisciplinary Studies with a Certificate in Women's and Gender Studies and a Minor in Political Science. I then attended Maternidad La Luz Midwifery School to receive a Certificate in Midwifery. I received my Master's in Social Work through the University of Denver. I additionally completed a Post-Master's Certificate in Sex Therapy from the Council for Relationships in Philadelphia, am in the process of certification in Prolonged Exposure and attended a virtual Queer and Trans Internal Family Systems Level 1 training.
