Seeking therapy is a personal and brave decision, often driven by a desire for healing and self-discovery. Therapy provides a safe space to explore life’s challenges and gain valuable insights. My approach is non-directive and client-centered, allowing you to guide the process at your own pace. For those who draw strength from their faith, I incorporate God-centered interventions to ensure alignment with spiritual beliefs. Whether in individual or couple therapy, I am committed to offering compassionate, personalized support to help you navigate your unique journey.
I will collaborate with you to achieve your goals so that you will feel heard and understood. As a Christian and a person of color and an immigrant, I hold a very unique position in understanding cultural differences, values, and traditions, which enable me to provide effective therapy from a multicultural perspective.
As a culturally sensitive therapist, I integrate your cultural values into our sessions. My approach to therapy is strengths-based, meaning that as we journey together, you will develop a more resilient and authentic self. And how your strengths and challenges support your best self. I look forward to accompanying you at every juncture on your journey.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
