Loss is an underlying reason many of my clients seek counseling. Some have lost a part of who they were before overwhelming life events occurred. Some are helping professionals who give so much in their work or life they are experiencing traumatic stress, compassion fatigue, burnout, or vicarious trauma. Some are experiencing the loss of a family structure they were familiar with. Others have experienced an unexpected traumatic loss of a loved one to suicide, homicide, or sudden death.

Starting a healing journey takes courage and trust. Everyday life doesn't always provide the safety and support to discover our truest selves. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or major life changes, I am here to utilize your strengths and create a therapeutic environment that will best help you develop the skills to have a fuller life. As an art therapist, I integrate the creative process through art making when it aligns with the client's needs.

Seeking a therapist is a positive step in your pursuit to feel better. As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand that trauma does not discriminate and may present in several different forms. Research has shown that both “big T” (a single, terrible event) and “little t” trauma (daily stressors) can block the brain’s ability to process distressing events and have a profoundly negative impact on emotional, psychological, physical and spiritual well-being. Both of these types of traumas can lead to depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, addiction, phobias, relationship issues, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or more.

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.

Something in your life isn’t working the way you hoped. Your relationships, self-esteem or overall happiness isn’t where you want it to be. You are feeling overwhelmed with all that's going on and are unsure how to get back on track. You may be experiencing anxiety and find the constant worry is controlling your life. Perhaps you're stuck in a relationship that feels blah and are worried things won't ever change. The thought "I know things should be better than this" keeps coming up. You’ve got a lot on your mind, and you wonder if talking to someone would help.

Do you find yourself asking "Is there something wrong with me?” or are you feeling like you have to "fix yourself?" Maybe you struggle to have healthy relationships or feel anxious in social situations. It can be really difficult to turn off the negative commentary in our minds. Many of my clients say that they struggle with harsh self-judgement and strongly fear that they "aren't enough." What might your life look like with less anxiety and fear and more focus on what means the most to you in your life and relationships with others? What if negative self-talk or the negativity coming from others just didn't bother you as much?
