Life often feels messy and complicated and we can get stuck in the same thought patterns, interpersonal conflicts, or ways of seeing the world that keep us from living as our best selves. My goal is to support clients in managing their stressors and building skills to show up in the world that feels authentic to them. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe space for clients to do the work of finding their own voice, processing through their struggles and issues, identifying and using coping skills, and showing up in relationships in an authentic way.

Seeking out therapeutic services is healthy for our mind/body/soul connection. Just as we go to the gym to keep our bodies healthy, or puzzles to keep our mind sharp, we go to therapy to keep our connection between our mind/body/soul. Further, relationships are the center of connection: how we relate to others (family, friends, coworkers,) and the relationship we have with ourselves. It is my privilege to sit with you (or your family members) while we navigate the roadblocks and successes that make your life experience uniquely yours. It is my hope that in through this exploration and work, we can improve your relationships.

I believe that each person is born with incredible strengths that are sometimes buried through their interpretation of life events and personal struggles. We can become anxious, depressed, angry or overwhelmed, while dreaming of the way we really want to live and express ourselves. I can honestly say that each of you has the potential to uncover your true self; to find contentment, self-worth and self-growth. The journey can be rough, at times, but I would like to walk alongside the path with you as you re-discover your dynamic self and achieve your personal goals.

My ideal client is someone who may be feeling lost or overwhelmed by their current circumstances, particularly around relationships and family dynamics. They could be navigating a challenging marriage, dealing with family conflict, or feeling stuck in a phase of life that’s leaving them disconnected or uncertain. This client deeply values their relationships and genuinely wants positive change but might be unsure how to get there. What they need is a compassionate, non-judgmental space where they feel heard and supported—somewhere they can explore who they are without fear of criticism.

As a woman of color, my clients have appreciated the cultural humility I bring my to my work to disrupt therapy solely based on Western models. I incorporate perspectives from the clients' cultural and spiritual beliefs. Supporting people through life transitions has been a focus with many clients ranging from college, marriage, divorce, child rearing to career changes. On a personal note, I am a 1.5 generation immigrant who came to this country as a young child, with both personal and professional experience with areas of familial conflict and healing. I will start with where you are and focus on the goals you seek in therapy.

I see my work with individuals and couples as collaborative and active. Often people feel stuck in their ways of relating and wonder how to create more satisfying connections with spouses, parents, children, friends, etc. I believe that people are drawn toward health and intuitively know when it is time to make changes in their lives. While it is often feelings of sadness or dissatisfaction that bring people to an initial therapy session, this is the first step toward health and feeling better. True change is possible and
the process of therapy can make it happen.

Are you struggling to cope with the effects of trauma or other stressful life events? Are feelings of anxiety and depression preventing you from living a full and meaningful life? People often search for strategies to find relief from their symptoms, but discover that these techniques are of limited use or create their own problems. I specialize in evidence-based psychotherapy for adults with these conditions - that is, therapy that has been extensively studied through years of psychological research.

If you have tried traditional "talk therapy" in the past and are still stuck, I can help! If you're struggling with anxiety, PTSD, or trauma, I encourage you to try a different approach. Together we will dive deeper to get to the root cause rather than immediately trying to fix the problem. It's always more complex than it appears on the surface and this work takes time and effort. I offer more expressive and experiential modalities to help you make meaningful, lasting changes and take you beyond just talk therapy. I take a holistic and integrative approach and see you as a whole person and not just a person with "issues."

As a licensed counselor, I feel strongly about everyone having a safe space where they can explore and learn more about themselves. I see counseling as a collaborative process where you and I can work together in the way that best suits your needs, whether that be a structured approach or something more freeform.
