Finding the right therapist is like finding the right fit; you’ve got to try a few to see what fits just right. Hi, I’m Tomario, a master level therapist committed to helping teens, adults, and couples navigate and overcome life’s toughest challenges. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, LGBTQIA2S+ related issues, navigating relationships, or embarking on a journey of self-discovery. I understand the importance of privacy when seeking help.
I strive to create a powerful and affirming space where you are celebrated and supported as you uncover and overcome anything standing in your way.
Your voice matters, your story has power, and your full self is celebrated. I hold deep respect for the identities, cultures, and experiences that have shaped you. Together, we’ll move gently and intentionally, centering healing that uplifts your truth, restores balance to your mind, body, and spirit, and helps you feel at home within yourself again.
My approach is rooted in the legacy of my grandmother, a trailblazing social worker whose compassion and commitment to justice guide me. I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and affirming space where your story is honored and healing can begin. Together, we’ll slow down, reconnect, and build a path forward that’s truly your own.
