ABOUT [CLINICIAN NAME]

“A quite or question.”

Hello! I am Aria (they/them). I'm a multiracial, queer, disabled, neurodivergent and genderqueer human who is led by the ambition of creating the world I want to pass on to my children and next generations.

Before pursuing a career in counseling, I served in the Marine Corps as a broadcast journalist, learning and sharing the stories of service members and those impacted by military engagement. This experience shaped me as a helper and advocate desiring to be a part of the world's healing.

I see my role as your counselor as a unique privilege to walk alongside you through your deepest struggles and greatest achievements — supporting your growth, wellness, and development. Whatever life chapter you are navigating, I am honored to join you on your journey.

I am committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming space where you can explore your identities, challenges, and strengths. I value compassion, curiosity, and collaboration, and hope to facilitate healing and empowerment.
