I want to help first generation immigrant women because the struggles and challenges are unique. It is very difficult to find a therapist who has also experienced the generational/cultural views that often impede on our growth. It is very troublesome when we are trying to stay in tune with our cultural values while being modernized by American culture. First Generation Immigrants often feel the struggle of maintaining a balance and feeling inadequate because of unique morals.

Because of the systems embedded in our communities we learned to be resilient , celebrate the good, smile through the pain and justify the negative as normal. My job as your therapist is to help you highlight the positive patterns and disrupt the negative in an effort to assist you in your goal in becoming the best version of you.

Admitting you need help can be hard, especially for people of color because we were taught different. There is no shame in recognizing that you cannot do it all by yourself, and admitting, "YES" I need help. Having open dialogues with an unbiased professional can allow you to learn how manage life. Life will continue to happen, but the idea is to build coping skills, develop mindfulness and self-awareness, and most importantly, being kind and gentle with yourself. The ultimate goal is to recognize our triggers, develop coping skills, and regain control over your thoughts and behaviors.
