Life is a package. When you open it, there will be something we want; and something we don't. Sometimes, life is great; other times, without our approval, life may shift in directions we have never thought about before (e.g., an accident). The wisdom of life, in heart-breaking moments like this, depends on the choices we make; choose to dwell in the pain and be stuck (e.g., depression); or carry the pain with us, continue to move forward, and create opportunities for a meaningful life. I believe such wisdom is embedded in everybody's heart; I am committed to work with you to discovery your own wisdom and pursue a meaningful life.
I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, chronic pain, trauma, OCD, and related disorders. I flexibly integrate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), to facilitate treatment success. I am also an expert working with couples to address relationship distress.
I earned my Ph.D. in clinical psychology from UNC - Chapel Hill and completed predoctoral internship (2020 - 2021) at the Montefiore Medical Centerin the Bronx, New York. I proudly served as the front-line mental health provider in the face of COVID-19. Graduated college from UM - Ann Arbor, I am also a proud Wolverine for life (Go Blue)!

I believe the goal of therapy is to set you free from therapy. During the initial stage of therapy, I often take more of the lead and set up the foundation for treatment success. Over time, I would invite you to gradually become the "captain of the ship," where I take a step back and walk alongside your journey. Eventually, you walk away from therapy with confidence to move life forward.
