As a first generation college student of immigrants I have enjoyed working with those in transitional stages in their life. Whether it is starting at a new school, becoming an adult, starting a new career, becoming empty nesters, or other life transitions. I believe it is important to learn about an individual's whole life to have a better understanding of what is bringing them to therapy. I create a safe space where I hope to earn a client's trust and help them heal along the way. I psychoeducate client's along the way and teach them how to psychoeducate their loved ones so they may have the support they need in all areas.

Helping children, adolescents, and their families is important to me. Having spent 17 years working with children in educational settings, I understand the struggles families face when dealing with behavioral and social issues, poor academic performance, learning disabilities, and mental health issues. Families may be faced with unexpected challenges such as loss of a loved one, loss of a job, or divorce. Not being able to help your child or teen with problems they face, or not being able to bring your family together as a loving unit can be frustrating and disheartening as a parent.

My goal is to work my self out of a job and give you all the tools and resources you need and I am just a phone call away when needed.
Everyone has core beliefs that are often formulated at an early age, and can refer to a cognitive construct such as "I don't belong" or "people can't be trusted." When someone is anxious the core belief of "I am a failure" could be activated. When activated these beliefs are experienced by the individual as absolute truths. Although we may "believe" them,the good news is these thoughts are largely false beliefs and can be overcome to fit who you value yourself to be and the purpose you see fit for your life.

“You have taken the first step to feeling better and achieving your goals. It is not easy to trust a stranger as we are mostly drawn to talk with family and friends when faced with an obstacles.

I utilize EMDR therapy to help you heal from adverse experiences as well as improve your performance in goal achievement, or career including sports.

Let me help you "Design Your Life!" We tend to design certain parts of our lives, maybe where we're going to live, or what kind of job we want to have. But when it comes to the most important things: relationships, marriages, parenting, and our own happiness, we often tend to just land where we land. Then we wonder why we are not happy or why things are not working out the way we had hoped. My goal is to help you get in the "driver's seat" of your life, to find true fulfillment, to "Design Your Life."

Career Counseling Therapists
How do I know if I need career counseling?
Determining whether a career counselor is needed involves assessing one's current career and identifying what changes can be made to improve one's overall quality of life. In particular, feelings of loss of motivation, fatigue, anxiety, depression, procrastination, or ongoing levels of high stress can all be indicative of a need for career-related counseling. In addition, individuals changing jobs may want the decision-making support or self-reflection opportunities provided by a career counselor.
Who can benefit from career counseling?
Anyone can benefit from the self-reflection, skill development, and stress management techniques that career counseling can provide. However, individuals who are feeling overwhelmed or burnt out with their current job and individuals considering a major career change may particularly benefit from career counseling to improve their wellbeing. Additionally, individuals who are facing issues in their current job, such as coworker relationship challenges or not meeting performance goals, may benefit from the perspective that a career counselor can provide. College-age or young professionals may also uniquely benefit from career counseling as they make key decisions surrounding education and job training that will impact their career trajectory.
How long does career counseling typically last?
The length of career counseling can vary greatly depending on the needs of the individual and what type of support they are seeking. Career coaching or advising services—which serve clients in a specific, goal-oriented capacity—often last for a shorter duration and are sometimes only a single session or a few sessions in length. In contrast, career counseling as part of a more integrative therapeutic relationship with a counselor may last longer, particularly if the issues faced by the client are longstanding and/or more complex in nature; in such cases, individuals may expect therapy to last multiple months or longer.
How to prepare for career counseling?
Clients can prepare for career counseling sessions by outlining the specific topics they would like to address with the counselor, such as current job challenges or hopes for the future of their career. Compiling one's thoughts on such topics often requires reflection on one's career and future goals, which in itself can be beneficial for session preparation. Clients may also want to put together a list of questions they would like to ask the counselor, particularly if the career counselor they are seeing has particular expertise in a given career area. Conducting research into potential future jobs, training opportunities, or support resources in one's area may also help clients prepare for career counseling by providing them with a background of what resources are available in their area.
