There are all times when we need a new perspective, someone to hear us and help us sort out life’s issues. Perhaps you are grappling with blocks in the way to accomplishing what you know you can or just need less anxiety as you do it. Some of us know what to do but not how to get there, others know how to get there but lack motivation, structure, or wisdom for a particular aspect of our lives. You may have tried to figure it out on your own, read books, gone to workshops and even been in therapy. I work with people using a practical yet gentle collaborative approach. For 30 years I have helped people get clear and move forward.

Now partnering with Float to help you better manage superbills and other insurance-related matters for out-of-network plans such as AETNA, Anthem, United, Optum & Oxford. Racism, harassment, brutality, microaggressions traumatize us and leave you feeling shame, embarrassment and anger. You feel alone and in pain, and you deserve emotional peace by speaking to a professional who listens, provides safety, validating AND gently challenging your fears and negative thoughts of yourself. It is important that these false narratives do not infiltrate how YOU perceive or feel about yourself, preventing YOU from identifying your own needs

I entered into the therapy world and continue to strive to create a non-judgmental environment for my clients that promotes hope, healing, and self-improvement. I enjoy supporting my clients through challenging times and providing new and creative ways to meet goals. While I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT); I am most drawn to practicing person-centered and strength-based therapy styles due to my concentration on self-worth and awareness. I truly know that stepping into a world of vulnerability with an unknown person can be a tremendous challenge and uncomfortable.

I believe that secure attachment provides the foundation for being able to have meaningful relationships - ones that promote intimacy, trust, and safety. Every relationship we have early on in life can either leave us with a sense of safety and belonging, or a sense of rejection and disconnection. These imprints ultimately shape how we navigate through the world, which can lead to a deeply fulfilling life, or one of detachment and disconnection. My practice is focused on helping individuals deepen their connection to themselves in order to create their desired life.

I am a female immigrant psychologist who helps individuals experiencing self-doubt, anxiety, and stress to create room for joy, confidence, and wellness. I am very gentle in my approach, even when we work through painful and uncomfortable issues. It is important to me that I respect my clients’ pace in the journey. That’s why I actively look for feedback and adjust if needed. My clients usually seek me because of my cultural background, ability to connect beyond their preferred language, and commitment to their wellbeing.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
