About My Clients

Looking for greater satisfaction and less stress? I’ve been partnering with individuals and couples since 2005 to navigate sensitive personal matters and find real solutions. My practice focuses on the intersection of multicultural identity, emotional regulation, and relational health. I am particularly dedicated to supporting clients through depression, anxiety, relational concerns and LGBTQIA+ specific concerns.

Using an integrative blend of psychodynamic, relational, and mindfulness-based techniques, I provide a safe space for you to gain insight and build alternative strategies for change.
