Anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, feeling "stuck", communication, boundaries and relationship problems are just some of the things people may experience throughout the course of their lives. Sometimes these are ongoing struggles, while sometimes they are more situation specific. With the unpredictability of life, and unexpected stressors, we all need support and a safe space to process our emotions and needs. Whatever struggle you are experiencing, you don't have to go through it alone.

At Seaglass Psychology, I can help heal your relationship with yourself and others, and the way these have been shaped by anxiety and low self-worth.
Life may not be going the way you hoped it would. Experiences from your past may make it difficult to trust yourself or others, and you may hold beliefs, identities, and intersections that mean you face unique barriers in the world. Anxiety may make it hard to connect with people, and you may struggle with negative self-talk, setting boundaries, and expressing your needs. You may have many questions about how to have the relationships you crave, yet not know how to get there, or how to feel like you belong.

Sometimes we find ourselves feeling stuck or dissatisfied with the way things have unfolded in our lives. This may be because of past or current traumas, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges. When life gets tough, connection and community can make a world of difference. You are not alone, and you don't have to manage all of life's heaviness by yourself. Therapy provides a valuable opportunity to explore your needs, process your emotions, understand yourself and your relationships, and receive support tailored to your areas of struggle. With the right support, meaningful and long-lasting change is possible.

Feeling distant from your spouse? Fighting with your teen? Struggling with anger, anxiety, depression, or addiction? Experienced trauma? I work with a variety of clients, but particularly enjoy problems in which clients that have felt misunderstood or mistreated. This includes working with adolescents, parent-teen conflict, relationship difficulties in both individuals and couples, addictions, anger or anxiety management, trauma, and Borderline Personality Disorder. In many of the clients I see, fear and confusion are often barriers to a satisfying life. Healing often comes through gaining confidence in areas one can control.

I love to help people feel good by improving their relationship dynamics and how they show up in the world.
What are the unique challenges you face that keep you from living your most vibrant and authentic life? My goal is to help you illuminate these barriers and approach them with a refreshed perspective where you can face them authentically with courage and move through the fear that can get us all stuck at times. I climb mountains because demanding experiences test me, light me up, and ground me simultaneously and I bring this perspective to therapy. I want to help guide you into finding a deep sense of calm amidst your own challenges and make space where you can appreciate just how tenacious you can be and create lasting change.

I specialize in providing client-centered, culturally sensitive support for life transitions, stress management, personal growth, career development, and relationship dynamics, and offer a safe space for meaningful conversations about immigrants' challenges.
As a fellow immigrant with a Bachelor's in Sociology and a Master's in Counselling Psychology, I bring over 13 years of experience in human resources and career advising specifically tailored for immigrants. I deeply understand the unique struggles you face—from the complexities of adjusting to a new culture to the pressures of re-establishing your career while supporting your family. Immigrants endure a distinctive blend of stressors that encompass not only professional aspirations but also the very essence of personal and social life.

That includes the most important relationship of all; the relationship we have with our self.
In the fantastically busy and often confusing world in which we live it is far too easy to overlook the single most important aspect of our lives; the wellbeing of ourselves and our relationships. Every aspect of our existence depends on our attitudes and beliefs and how we relate to others.
