I utilize a combination of therapeutic approaches including trauma focused CBT to connect the past to the present so that what was once quite confusing now makes sense.
I specialize in working with clients who have a history of trauma including physical, sexual, verbal, and/or emotional abuse. I also work with clients suffering from Borderline Personality Disorder and dissociative disorders. Left untreated, these conditions can make life unbearable not only for the client, but also for those who love them. Therefore, whenever feasible, I involve partners and family members in treatment to ensure their understanding of their loved one's condition and to teach skills to support management and healing. I also offer weekend workshops addressing specific topics like BPD and emotion regulation skills.

This quote encompasses my approach to trauma and change: “Trauma creates change you don’t choose. Healing is about creating the change that you DO choose.” In my work with clients I seek to navigate through change, healing, and trauma, find and seek deeper meaning and understandings of our own selves within our existence and displays of resilience. In creating what we CHOOSE, whether it be CHANGE through our thought processes, relationships, decisions, or behavior the goals can seek to embrace the differences, challenges, and the unexpected that life throws at us.

I fully understand what it feels like to have all the feelings but no idea what to do with them. I also know what it’s like to “know” what to do and feel unable to make positive changes. Because of this, I firmly believe you are the expert on your own life and my role as the therapist is to support, encourage, and offer a fresh perspective on areas of struggle. Through our collaborative work, my goal is to offer guidance as you learn to embrace what it means for you to experience a fulfilling, authentic life.

As a child of immigrants. I’ve learned the importance of co-existing in two different cultures and how that can impact one’s mental health. I deeply understand the learned narratives surrounding privacy even at the cost of your mental health. Because of this I sought out additional education and certifications in numerous trauma modalities including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT).
