Being a culturally competent therapist is extremely important to me. As the daughter of immigrants, this experience has helped me to get in touch with my own beliefs and value systems. Therefore, I am able to help clients connect to their own values and take committed action steps in service of those values. I work primarily with adults and specialize in working with emerging adults who may be undergoing life transitions. I also have experience working with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, grief and loss, severe or chronic mental illness and trauma.

I am here to hold a safe space for you as we work collaboratively through this very difficult human experience. I will work with you holistically, addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, chronic pain and feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Using my knowledge as a counselor, as well as a certified trauma informed yoga teacher, we will work to address how your experiences feed your state of mind and how you feel in your body. I primarily work with adults over the age of 18 that are interested in learning how to move through difficulty, grow, and discover your purpose in this life whatever circumstances you currently find yourself in.

Because I believe emotional pain has an unique way of informing us in our clinical work, I would like to help you achieve the goal of making use of your pain to help enlarge your capacity to do the important work that you do.
I specifically treat mothers because as holders of reality and pain for others, mothers healers often find themselves deprived of the care that they graciously give others. As a result, they are left to bear the weight of their pain alone. If you are a mother who also cares for others as a profession, you are caretaking in your professional and personal life. The reality is that you need the holding container that you give others. Seeking therapy for yourself is paramount to your ability to provide competent care without experiencing burnout. This is the best form of self care.

As a psychologist and psychoanalyst I work with children, adolescents and adults of all ages in a strength-based and relationship-engaged process. With both children and teenagers, I always include parallel work with parents to support and improve communication and understanding. My approach is grounded in a development perspective that appreciates the essential connection between body and mind and recognizes how past experiences and relationships, as well as things outside of our conscious awareness, influence our present-day feelings and behavior. I have successfully worked with persons of all ages who wish to avoid or discontinue the use of psychotropic medications.

From the outside, you appear to have it all together. Your inner world is vastly different though, filled with dread, sadness, anticipation, worry, and self-doubt. You lie awake at night rehearsing the day's events, others' actions and intentions, and what's to come tomorrow. Your health is starting to suffer and you are physically and emotionally exhausted. You feel emotionally distant, lonely, and detached from others and yourself.

Do you want to create change? Do you want to learn how to make intrapersonal and interpersonal shifts in order to move through your life with more ease? With 30 years of experience, I am a seasoned dance/movement therapist. However, I not only offer body centered approaches but a variety of other creative modalities such as art making, role play, and creative writing to awaken our healthiest parts. I have consistently witnessed the power of incorporating these non-verbal and artistically expressive techniques into the traditional counseling process.

The goal is progress not perfection. When we compare ourselves to the ideal future we desire, we often feel disappointed about where we are and the amount of progress we have made. When we compare where we are to where we have been we have the opportunity to celebrate our progress and use that energy to take the next step. I am passionate about meeting people where they are at, and helping them discover their first step and to keep momentum towards their goals.
