I am a Licensed Bilingual Psychotherapist with 13 years of experience, treating individuals and families in areas of community mental health, the corporate sector, and private practice. Currently, I work with immigrant families, adults, and adolescents with a history of intergenerational trauma. I believe that what is helpful for the therapeutic process is providing undivided attention, empathic support, and addressing challenges along the way.

Clients come to therapy wanting to make change in their lives and as challenging as it can be, clients who do well with me engage in fearless personal exploration using curiosity to drive their progress towards their preferred future. Clients who are interested in a holistic approach to mental health including sleep and nutrition and an openness to multiple viewpoints of healing and health will be engaged with my style. I also believe that clients don't want to be in therapy forever, nor should they be, so I aim to provide clients with firm internal processes and awareness they can use throughout the lifespan.

I believe that therapy should be a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space, that offers the opportunity to process and make sense of emotions and experiences, and move towards deeper sense of self understanding. I am dedicated to helping people identify how certain thoughts, feelings and behaviors contribute to distress, and creating a collaborative path to change. My passion for providing therapy comes from the belief that we are inherently aware of what we need to be successful and are capable of making the changes necessary to move in a positive direction.

I work with individuals across the lifespan who have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, or just need a new perspective. Utilizing a person-centered approach allows clients to share their story. I want to help provide the space for my clients to process and identify maladaptive ways of coping or thinking to help them live life to the fullest. Change can be scary, especially when dealing with mental health issues. Using a relational approach allows the client to build a relationship with me so that they can feel comfortable and be themselves.

My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that each individual has the capacity to affect change in his/her life. I also believe in my responsibility to actively engage with my client and facilitate their movement through their issues and feelings. Different theoretical interventions may be more facilitative depending on one's particular needs, one's background, one's view of the world, and one's capacity for insight. As a therapist, I truly consider the individual as a whole and attempt to utilize the most effective tool to facilitate progress towards independent wellness given the particular needs and challenges of my client.

Not sure what you want to do with your life? Been there. Ankle-deep in your tears yet again from another disappointing relationship? Know the feeling. Unsure of your role as a person in a world that rarely recognizes or respects you? (raises hand) Maybe just sick and tired of feeling sick and tired? I got you! My education and training have certainly prepared me to handle many situations, but I excel at what I do because I have something to offer to my clients - real-world, relatable, personal experience.
