As a person of color born and raised in the Bay Area, I truly believe in my task and role as a therapist to reach those who feel as though their story is unheard and invalidated by the world we currently live in. My strengths as a therapist consist of gaining over nine years of experience working in the field of mental health as a mental health clinician under the non-profit realm and private practice within Santa Clara County. Over the course of my experience I have built skills in providing therapy to socioeconomically diverse families, children, individuals, couples, and those who identify with the LGBTQIA population.

Are you overwhelmed by the world? Do you feel tempted to numb out? Have you received comments about your sensitivity and/or quietness? Growing up, you feel like you do not belong. You learned to survive in this world, becoming what other people want. Once you realize you are living someone else’s life, not yours, you feel lost.

Do you feel lost in an overwhelming world? Have you followed the roadmap given to you and did all the "right" things, but still feel deeply unhappy and unfulfilled? I work with high achieving and sensitive women of color who are familiar with prioritizing the needs of family, career, and relationships before their own. Many clients I work with grew up in immigrant families and from an early age were emotionally neglected, abused, and parentified (taking on adult responsibilities as a child). If this sounds like your childhood, as an adult, you've likely experienced depression, anxiety, trauma symptoms, and relationship problems.

For 18 years, I have provided mental health services to adolescents, teens, adults, families, couples, and groups that present with a range of mental illness, behavioral, trauma, crisis, relationship, and personal life challenges. I use integrated modalities such as CBT, DBT, Solution focused, etc,. depending on the needs of the client. My goal for the client is to promote healing, create self-awareness, cultivate resilience, and develop the interpersonal skills needed to sustain relationships with self and others.

I hear and see you! I have personal experience aiding clients of all ages, but have worked extensively with teens. I have worked with clients who faced issues with depression, anxiety, self worth, relentless inner chatter, complicated relationships, transitional life stages, infertility, public speaking, the global pandemic and generational cultural expectations which differ from one's own values. What everyone does have in common is that they are looking for a better relationship with themselves and others. I understand you because of my experience and I know how to assist you in overcoming your life challenges. You are not alone.

I am a respectful, open-minded, and compassionate mind/body psychotherapist who assists clients to find practical solutions to life challenges. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a somatic therapy that enables people to heal from trauma and emotional distress. I am also certified in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFT), which addresses distress in couples and helps them to create a secure bond; and in the Hakomi Method, which studies how we organize internal experience. I am also trained in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, which combines cognitive, emotional and somatic interventions.

During these times of COVID19 I am continuing to offer a safe place to heal via telehealth and over the telephone. In these trying times I am helping people to cope with their “new normal”, feelings of isolation, being stressed and stretched to the max, overwhelmed, irritated, angry and issues of new and old relationships. I am helping people make sense of their lives and relationships again. The world can be overwhelming, but we don’t need to let the world overwhelm our lives. I use CBT to help people to make emotional and behavioral changes. Where do you want to be in life? Let’s make a plan and get you there.

THINGS ARE NOT THE WAY THEY USED TO BE... How to learn to navigate this new normal we are in right now. How can I feel safe as things open back up? For many years I have been assisting and enlightening people's thought processes, allowing them to see life from a different perspective. This is often all many clients need to adjust the way they view their life experiences. Self-awareness and self-care are often the answer to a fresh approach for many clients. The key is uncovering the client's issues to focus on the proper approach to adjusting the problems.
