Feeling lost, alone, or scared is a common experience, and many of us struggle with thoughts like, "Nobody understands me," "I don't deserve help," or "Others have it worse, so why should I be kind to myself?" Many of us tell ourselves a variation of this from time to time. Perhaps, the recent job market changes and layoffs might have shaken your trust in your employer or career field, leaving you uncertain about your next steps. Let's work together to explore your personal journey and strengthen your relationships with yourself and others. Let’s navigate this path together, finding clarity and building resilience along the way.
I have a range of experience working within higher levels of care and cultural-specific community mental health settings with a focus on mood and anxiety disorders, identity-based challenges, academic, tech, and career-based stressors, and challenges around life transitions. My therapeutic style utilizes expressive arts therapy with DBT, ACT and beyond.
Together, we can build the foundation for making a life worth living as we learn to be kind to ourselves and learn to love both the challenges and the joys in life along your journey towards growth. As we work on your journey towards growth, I provide you with my skills and experience as a clinician to empower you in your healing process.
