Life is hard, regardless of your circumstance. Sometimes we carry trauma and pain from childhood and our family of origin, sometimes the stress hits us later in life. I have over 15 years of experience working with a wide range of mental and emotional health issues. Through collaboration, empathy, and a strength-based outlook, my goal is to take some of life’s weight off your shoulders. We all deserve to be heard, to be respected, and to be happy.

Do you feel unfulfilled and lost or confused in your roles, overwhelmed by work, family, and relationships? Perhaps you feel anxious, exhausted, and disconnected, longing for clarity and a way to reconnect with your true self and your dreams. Or are you part of a couple, still care for each other but feel emotionally distant, stuck in cycles of conflict, and wanting to rebuild trust, emotional intimacy, and communication? Perhaps you carry the weight of trauma or complexities around adoption, which impacts how you relate to yourself and others.

I work with individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next steps—often during life transitions or while navigating self-esteem and relationship challenges. Many come in feeling disconnected from their confidence or struggling to make decisions that align with who they want to be. In our work together, we focus on building clarity, strengthening self-trust, and developing practical tools to help you move forward with confidence and intention.

My ideal client is a young adult navigating anxiety, trauma, or major life transitions, often first-generation or from a multicultural background. They're carrying the weight of family expectations, identity questions, and systemic pressures, often without much support. They want to feel understood without over-explaining their background. Their goals go beyond symptom relief, they want clarity, self-compassion, and the tools to move through life with more confidence. They're ready to do the work, and I'm ready to show up for them.

My ideal clients are individuals navigating life transitions, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or feelings of being stuck. Many are professionals, veterans, caregivers, and helpers who have spent years caring for others while neglecting their own needs. Clients often come to therapy when they are ready for change. They want to heal from the past, gain clarity, improve relationships, build healthy coping skills, and create a more fulfilling life. I provide a supportive, collaborative space where clients can explore challenges, identify barriers to growth, and develop practical strategies for moving forward.

If you love your partner but feel stuck in painful communication patterns, you're not alone. Conversations escalate faster than you expect, or shut down just as you're trying to be honest. The same issues come up again and again, and even though you've done personal growth work or tried therapy, things still don't change in real life. On the outside, your relationship may look solid. On the inside, you may feel disconnected, misunderstood, or emotionally alone. You don't need to be told to "communicate better" or try harder. You need a way to stay grounded when emotions rise.

Through individual psychotherapy sessions, I support women navigating relationship anxiety, heartbreak, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, low self-worth, and depressed mood rooted in past relational wounds. This work is for the woman who appears strong on the outside yet quietly carries anxiety, emotional heaviness, or disconnection within. The woman who overthinks conversations, fears being “too much,” craves deep love, yet struggles to feel emotionally safe in relationships while navigating heartbreak, loneliness, transitions, or losing herself while trying to be chosen.

The mind and body are connected. Sometimes, our body will tell us something is wrong before we allow ourselves to feel it. I specialize in providing counseling for grief, loss, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues with a focus on this connection. I help individuals and couples heal from difficult and past trauma. I have specialized training in C-PTSD and intergenerational trauma. Above all, I value our therapeutic relationship and your culture. I take time and care in getting to know what's important to you.
