Accepting New Clients! Carrying the weight of everyday stress, trauma, or struggling to get a good night's sleep? Maybe you’re just trying to get through the day, but stress from work or school, family demands, or relationship challenges keep adding up. I work with people who feel caught in these cycles, helping them find real relief. If you’re ready to explore a path toward relief, I’d be honored to walk with you.
I specialize in trauma recovery and PTSD, stress management, sleep health and insomnia, life transitions, work or school stress, relationship and family dynamics, as well as cultural identity and intergenerational challenges. I am trained in CBT-I, Polyvagal, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Relational Cultural Therapy.
Therapy with me offers a space where you can be yourself, truly heard, and supported. We’ll focus on what matters most to you, whether its trauma, reducing stress, or improving sleep while setting achievable goals. My aim is to help you build resilience, find balance, and experience a lasting sense of calm.
