We provide compassionate care to people coping with interpersonal stress impacted by depression, anxiety, life transitions, and grief. Each clinician at Bodh relates well to the struggle of rediscovering and redefining the many facets of one's identity, balancing multiple cultural and generational norms, starting and re-starting our lives, and figuring out how to be comfortable in our own skin. Collectively, we are keen to support POC, expats/nomads, Immigrants, and Third Culture Kids (TCKs) through acculturative stress, identity development, re-establishing a sense of belonging, and navigating intergenerational conflict.

Struggling is a normal part of our lives, and yet many of us try and ignore the emotional pain, and discomfort. One might try and normalize, "it's just a little anxiety" or maybe minimize, "I'm not THAT unstable, I don't need help". The truth is we all need support throughout our life time. I have experience working with children, teens, and adults. I have worked with clients struggling with; depression, anxiety, self-harm, eating disorders, low self-esteem, OCD, and those who have a diagnosis of Autism.

Couples often struggle with many relationship issues all at the same time. Marriage counseling can only go so far without having choices on how to move forward. Let's begin with these options: Starting fresh with new skills and approaches to being a couple. Making amends and forgiveness. Exploring your family culture and what you bring into your relationship. Restructuring, uncoupling, separation, or compassionate divorce. We'll discuss the main options and together agree upon the focus of our work moving forward. I take an integrated approach to working with couples which has been informed by many master clinicians.

There are many reasons to look for a therapist. While I do not know your reasons, I do know it is often when it is hard to find help that you most need it. I work well with people who struggle to trust others, or have had difficulty feeling understood. Having worked in inpatient, community health, and private practice I have had the opportunity to support people with a large range of issues, often dealing with many issues at once. I bring my knowledge base and ways of understanding into the room - I aim to recognize how various factors interplay: family history, biology, identity, culture, and personality to name a few.

"Let go of who you think you are supposed to be and embrace who you are." -Brene Brown It is often our own misconceptions who we are "supposed to be" and unrealistic expectations of ourselves that get in the way of our own personal growth. We tend to overlook our strengths and struggles while giving so much weight to these perceived failures. We think of happiness as a destination to get to, unpack our bags, and live there "happily ever after." I will work with you to untwist these unrealistic, unhelpful ways to view our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Our behaviors have a purpose if we look close enough without judgement.

Sometimes, we feel stuck in life and don't know what we can do to move forward. I often work with, and welcome, individuals who struggled to find benefit in previous attempts at therapy. I find great value in working with folks struggling to maintain their identity while juggling children and aging parents. Individuals managing a beloved pets illness or loss are also a welcomed part of my practice. I enjoy working with individuals who seek greater understanding of how their moods and behaviors developed, and why their current coping strategies may no longer feel useful.

SEX THERAPY. How do we rebuild trust after this? Why are we struggling to connect with each other sexually? You may hear yourself asking these questions and not know where to begin or how to overcome the emotional distance you feel between yourself and your partner. I am passionate about working with couples and individuals desiring to move towards connection. For some couples or individuals it may be hard to connect because of previous wounds you carry from other relationships. For others it may be that it is hard to talk openly and honestly to each other or maybe pornography, infidelity, substance use has eroded trust.
