When life becomes challenging, do you ever feel confused about where to turn? Perhaps you wish to discover the ways in which the past may be holding you back, better understand the reason why you're feeling stagnant in the present, and explore why the future may feel so intimidating for you. It is normal to feel like you need the support of others to feel stable again, and seeking therapy is a brave and courageous first step. Through our work together, we can process your feelings, develop healthy coping skills, and explore new ways of living that feel fulfilling in the here and now. You deserve to feel better, and I can help!
I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and psychodynamic, interpersonal, and multicultural psychotherapies to help teens, adults, and couples, who may be struggling with low mood, worried thoughts, trauma, perinatal concerns, relationship issues, multicultural identity struggles, and adjustment difficulties. Together, we can work on your healing.
I am committed to being a warm, affirming, collaborative, non-judgmental, and culturally humble support system for you. We can safely examine your pains and joys, explore your emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and needs, and illuminate your numerous strengths. You are the expert on yourself, but together we can add more tools to your tool box to help you excel.

I often use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in my practice. I assist clients in exploring the ways in which they may be stuck in a way of living that is unhelpful and unfulfilling. I help clients tap into their values, reduce avoidance patterns, and compassionately express their thoughts, emotions, and needs in hopes to achieve a more flexible, values-based, and wholesome way of living.
