I specialize in culturally informed trauma therapy for multicultural individuals navigating complex identities, intergenerational trauma, complex PTSD, unresolved grief, disabilities, and religious trauma. I help address issues like identity struggles, trauma triggers, relationship breakdowns, sleep problems, depressive episodes, dissociation, existential questioning, and maladaptive coping. My goal is to help you Reclaim Control so you stop being hijacked by your nervous system. I facilitate perspective shifts to move you forward, help establish healthy boundaries & improve wellbeing. Together, we'll find meaning and empowerment.
My approach is holistic and eclectic, drawing from experience across diverse cultural settings. I help you develop self-awareness, provide concrete tools for emotional regulation, offer psychoeducation on mind-body connections, ensure safety as you connect with different parts of yourself, and help you make meaning from painful life events.
I understand how challenging it can be to take this first step. I offer a compassionate space where your experiences are valued, and cultural background respected. I provide a free 20-minute consultation to explore your unique needs and discuss tailored therapy approaches. You don't have to navigate this journey alone - I'm here when you're ready.
