우리는 과거를 돌이킬 수는 없지만 고통스러운 기억에서 자유로울 수는 있습니다. 우리의 뇌는 스스로 치유하는 능력을 가지고 있습니다. We as human beings, may encounter overwhelming challenges that can leave us feeling powerless or hopeless. The current emotional disturbance and negative thoughts often come from old self-beliefs, deeply rooted emotions from unresolved past experiences that are adverse or even traumatic. we all have inherent ability to build resilience and embrace challenges into growth and healing.

As of 4/13/24, multiple openings in Frederick & Rockville with new therapists... Welcome! I’m so glad you're here. I believe most people can benefit from the support of a nurturing, therapeutic environment. I’ve never met anyone who has said they have too much support in their life. I would be honored if you allow me into your life, and we can work toward developing the support you need.

The mere thought of therapy can be daunting, while in actuality most of us ask for advice from those around us everyday. What makes therapy different from asking a coworker, friend or relative for their advice, is my approach to therapy. I believe therapy is allowing you the space to work out issues, the space to feel free and learn about yourself in new ways. Therapy is looking at your thoughts and behavioral patterns for maximum effectiveness to your desired goals. My approach is best summed up in a quote by Benjamin Franklin, “There are three things extremely hard: steel, a diamond, and to know one’s self.”

As a therapist, I bring ten years of experience in mental health treatment with people of all ages, specifically focused on depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, and crisis intervention. Aside from talk-therapy, I am an art therapist and I'm happy to incorporate aspects of this technique into your session. Art therapy may not be for everyone, so do not be deterred! I believe strongly in the benefits of mindfulness and client-centered practice in my sessions. I also employ solution-focused techniques, which can give direction and gratification towards fulfilling your goals.

As a person experiencing anxiety, a stressful life transition, overwhelming emotions or symptoms of trauma, you are motivated to feel good again and reclaim your life. You’ve tried to fix it on your own, but nothing seems to work, at least not for very long. You’re worried things might get worse, or maybe they already have. You know healing is possible, but it seems out of reach. Choosing to start, or restart therapy can be scary! You want to make sure you select the right person who you can really connect with and feel confident has the expertise to help.

My work consists of a collaborative exploration of your needs and hopes in a supportive and culturally sensitive environment. Past and present life adversaries often shape the way we feel and interact. Examining our unhealthy patterns and incorperating our strengths in a trusting therapeutic relationship, can elicit experiences of personal growth, living a richer life and increasing our propensity for healthy and adaptive relationships. I work well with a range of psychological needs and concerns; anxiety, depression, adjustment difficulties, relationship issues, self - esteem, life changing events and trauma are some of the areas that I welcome in our exploration.
