I have experience working cross-culturally with clients facing a range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. I work with both individuals and couples, using holistic, evidence-based approaches that support meaningful and lasting change. Therapy is tailored to each client’s unique needs and preferences. My goal is to help clients gain deeper self-understanding, develop healthier ways of managing emotions, and improve their overall quality of life.
