As a strong advocate of mental wellness and wholeness, I provide a warm, gentle, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can gain clarity and muster the courage to transform your life and relationships.

I have extensive experience working with older teens and adults from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds who are struggling with depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, grief & loss and stress. However, my true passion is helping couples in every stage of their relationship cultivate a deeper emotional connection that lasts a lifetime.

If life has been tough lately, there is help. Relief is within reach.

I subscribe to the idea that all long-term psychological struggles are tied to relationship problems. By gently exploring what "hurts" in relationships and working toward repair and healing, symptoms of emotional distress often ease or even cease. I understand that vulnerability is hard so my approach is nonjudgmental, compassionate and collaborative.
