You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of who you are right now—it's common for teens and adults. Maybe you’re questioning your faith/religion, feeling distant from your family, constantly judging yourself, or struggling to understand your identity. You might notice yourself overthinking social situations, doubting your worth, or feeling anxious about your future, career path, or finances. I work with adults who are trying to make sense of this stage of life—where things feel uncertain, and the pressure to “have it all together is stressful. I affirm and support BIPOC, AAPI, Latinx, LGBTQ+, and neurodivergent identities.
I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based therapy and trauma informed care. We’ll look at how your experiences have shaped the way you see yourself and others—and help you build a clearer, more grounded sense of self. You’ll gain practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, trauma.
I use active listening, engaging responses, compassionate questioning, validation strategies and cognitive behavioral interventions to support clients in remaining committed to therapy as they challenge themselves to change well-established behavioral, cognitive and emotional patterns which they find frustrating but have relied on over time.
