Many clients come feeling like they or their relationships “should be fine”, but deep down they feel confused, disconnected, overwhelmed, or burdened, just not knowing why. Unprocessed past experiences can be stored in our body, causing anxiety, depression, self esteem issue, tougher life transitions, or disturbed relationships. In our sessions, we'll gently reconnect the parts that have been shut down by stress, anger, fear, shame, or grief, make sense of everything that's important to you, help you to express yourself freely, and rediscover your authentic self.
I specialize in healing relational and trauma wounds via psychoanalytic and somatic/EMDR therapy—especially for immigrants, professionals, LGBTQ+, ADHDers, CPTSD/NPD/sexual abuse survivors, adoption parents, and first responders. My life experiences have deepened my compassion, so I can hold a personalized space for clients from diverse backgrounds.
Healing doesn’t have to be a solitary climb. I invite you to have a free 15-minute chat — Let’s work together to create a safe, supportive space where you can finally feel understood and empowered to shape the future you deserve.

I work with people who carry the weight of relational pain, complex trauma, abuse, or identity-based harm. In our sessions, we'll slow down and listen to what your mind and body have been holding for so long. You may feel more grounded and connected gradually and steadily. Healing isn't about fixing what's broken - it's about reclaiming safety, trust, self-compassion and wholeness.
