My clients are people who have spent most of their lives being strong for everyone else. They're the ones who figured out early how to navigate systems, meet expectations, and carry more than their share, often without anyone noticing the weight. Maybe they're first-generation, bicultural, or caught between the world they came from and the one they're building. Maybe they've experienced trauma, loss, or a life transition that quietly unraveled something inside them. On the outside, things look fine. On the inside, they're exhausted, disconnected, or wondering why they still don't feel like enough.
If that resonates, you're in the right place. Something has shifted and you can't quite get back to yourself. Maybe it's depression, anxiety, trauma, or grief. Maybe an immigration experience, a major life change, or a relationship that fell apart. Maybe just a persistent, heavy feeling you haven't found words for yet.
That's exactly where we start. Therapy with me is honest, warm, and grounded in what actually works. I use evidence-based approaches, including specialized trauma treatments, but I'm less interested in applying a rigid method than I am in understanding you: what shaped you, what's keeping you stuck, and what a different life could actually look like.

I use trauma-focused, evidence-based approaches including CPT, Prolonged Exposure, ACT, and CBT. But more than any method, what guides me is you — your story, your pace, your goals. Some days we'll do hard work. Other days we'll just breathe. Either way, you won't be doing it alone.
