I support individuals and couples in their relationships and personal growth. Your patterns might be keeping you from connecting with your authentic self and living a fulfilling life.

Taking a strength-based perspective, I listen deeply and reflectively to sustain a non-judgmental and safe environment. I am passionate about helping clients fully process past experiences and thrive in relationships with themselves, others, and the world around them.

Loss, failure, and separation are major root causes of many forms of suffering in life. But they are not always evident, we may be too young when live through them, or we may not feel their impact until long after an event. Sometimes they even travel through generations. As a psychotherapist, I have spent over 25 years helping people who suffered from a variety of emotional and relational problems created by one or a combination of these issues, ranging from basic unhappiness to unhealthy relationships, workplace conflicts, divorce and separations, parents struggling with their children, migration and forced separation, even trauma.

Clients come to therapy for a number of reasons, such as identity shifts, grief and loss, low self-esteem, immigration/acculturative stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship & family struggles, and spiritual crises. Whatever your pull to come to therapy, I acknowledge the courage it takes to participate in your healing. Through person-centered and feminist approaches, I collaborate with clients in the process of re-defining who they are that feels the most authentic to themselves. My clinical "toolbox" includes mindfulness, a trauma-informed lens, existentialism, diversity practices, and a nonjudgmental stance.

I am a clinical psychologist in private practice in Newton Upper Falls, Massachusetts. I specialize in helping adults navigate challenges with their family, relationships, parenthood, and culture(s) that impact their well-being. Life is often complicated, painful and messy. We all have experiences that can be difficult to navigate alone and times when we would benefit from extra support. We might know the changes we want to make but may not completely understand what is getting in the way of making those changes. We will work together to create a space in which you can speak honestly about what you are thinking and feeling.

Are you feeling stuck where you are (at work, in relationships, or other area that matter to you)? I offer a supportive environment, so that we together, can find solutions to the problems that matter to you. I have worked with many individuals from a diverse range of ethnic and religious backgrounds. I will work with you to determine a plan to meet your needs and decide how we can work together to meet your goals. I have helped many clients access services in their communities and have helped them reach their goals. I use a humanistic and eclectic approach to therapy, and am happy to collaborate with any of your other providers.

Our unique life experiences influence how we relate to ourselves, and others. This is the lived lens through which we approach problems. We all have latent capabilities and skills to overcome challenges, but may find it hard to access them. It can be very helpful to speak with an objective person to gain insight and a better understanding of oneself. I work from an empowerment model, with a compassionate approach. I endeavor to build a therapeutic relationship founded on equality, trust and safety to achieve mutually agreed upon goals.
