About My Clients

Hi, I’m so glad you are here. If your life has come to a crossroad and you would like someone to walk alongside you as you navigate your journey, you have come to the right place. Feeling uncertain, worried, or hopeless can be scary and hard to cope with. I support people in their change journeys who are experiencing bicultural identity challenges, life transitions, anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, and trauma.

My Background and Approach

My background is working with adults in an outpatient setting. My approach is person-centered, and targets balance between mind and body. I may use any combination of the following techniques in therapy: Cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness-based approaches. I will collaborate with you to find the best way to meet your needs, and provide the tools that will be helpful to support your goals.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I feel that everyone at some point in their life could benefit from support from another human. Change is possible, but sometimes it's not just about change and we need to focus on validating your experiences and reducing your suffering. I care about an array of social justice issues, most prominently disrupting racial oppression and promoting equity. I consider myself an ally to people who identify as LGBTQ+. I am deeply passionate about women's issues and navigating identity.
