The Diathesis-Stress model of psychology suggests, GENETICS load the gun and the ENVIRONMENT pulls the trigger. As human beings, we are all biologically vulnerable to experience mental health disorders, although they may manifest in different ways and to different levels of severity. At the same time we are all exposed to environmental stressors that can interact with our predispositions. With any therapist, it is important to develop SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely) goals that allow us to gain insight into our vulnerabilities and surroundings, to better understand why we react the way that we do.

Do you lose your keys, your temper, or your place in conversation? Welcome to ADHD. Struggling to relax, even during a yoga class? That's anxiety’s way of saying ‘...hey’ and if your relationships feel like puzzles with missing pieces, you’re not alone. I specialize in helping clients untangle these issues. With nearly ten years of experience—and a decent knack for finding the silver lining in even the most stress-inducing moments—I offer a mix of practical strategies, a functioning set of ears, and the occasional terrible pun.

If you've ever felt as if you had to choose one part of yourself over another in order to be seen, you're not alone. As a queer, first-generation immigrant, I developed a deep understanding of the nuances of intersectional identities, sociocultural values and the self from an early age. I seek to provide a compassionate space to hold all of you in your complexity. Only then can we explore and integrate your emotions and experiences into your own personal healing journey, in whatever shape that takes in the context of your life.

Becoming a mother can often leave you with feelings of sadness, being overwhelmed, or even hopelessness. It takes a community to support new moms and all that comes with it. The transition to motherhood is demanding and my passion is working together with moms to navigate the challenges across the perinatal spectrum. I help moms embrace their resilience and pursue the walk of motherhood from an empowered state of being.

Are you seeking a space to be seen and heard? Are there parts of you that are feeling lost, stuck, or overwhelmed? Are the big emotions feeling particularly heavy? Your story is important and is what makes you uniquely you. I believe that we are shaped by our past experiences, relationships, and environments. Our stories rarely unfold in the way we expect. Oftentimes, to move forward we need to heal from things in our past. Together in therapy, we will explore all parts of your story – from the chapters already concluded to those not yet written.

My 40 plus years in the mental health field have been shaped by my work in two major areas: thirty years working in a psychiatric hospital, and my on-going private practice . These two defining experiences have brought to me an awareness of the enormous resiliency of the human spirit and mind and of the capacity for everyone to achieve change in their lives. Sometimes the change is massive, sometimes it is less major, but not necessarily less important. Sometimes that change may require developing a whole new perspective on life or relationships, while at others it may only involve looking at a problem from a different angle.
