I understand how culture, family expectations, identity, and belonging can shape the way we move through the world. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in patterns that no longer serve them, navigating difficult relationships, processing trauma, or questioning who they are outside of the roles they've always been expected to fulfill.
I work with teens and adults who are exploring their identity, healing from complex or relational trauma, moving through life transitions, or struggling with self-worth, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and emotional overwhelm.
Whether you're carrying the weight of family expectations, finding it difficult to set boundaries, or feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can offer a space to slow down and make sense of what's happening beneath the surface. I operate from a core belief that you are the expert of your own experience.
I value creating a genuine therapeutic relationship where you can show up as you are, without judgment, pressure, or the need to have it all figured out. If you're looking for a therapist who is warm, authentic, and willing to gently challenge you when needed, I'd be honored to support you in building a life that feels more aligned and true to yourself.
