Or maybe, you feel distant and disconnected from your partner which makes you second guess your life together? You may be fed up of trying to please people all the time to meet those expectations. Or being exhausted by continuously worrying about the future of your relationship with your partner. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way.

What would you give to feel excited about your career, family, friends, or hobbies again? I enjoy blending mind & body healing modalities to help clients achieve wellness at all levels.
Have you been ambitious your whole life, but recently feel resentful and burnt out? As a high achiever, it’s confusing to feel disconnected from the passion that has always driven you. Maybe this dissatisfaction has been slowly growing over the years & you’ve been able to manage it. But now you’re questioning whether all those long hours are worth it. You may also be feeling exhausted & unsure how something that used to be enjoyable just isn't anymore. The habitual stress of being exceptional in your work can also lead to health problems that medical doctors aren’t skilled at addressing. That's where I come in.

I use various modalities and interventions such Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems and Family systems therapy.
I view therapy as a collaborative effort, where I share my expertise to help clients gain more insight and agency in their lives. I aim to do this by being open minded both to a wide variety of experiences and to a client's end goal of therapy. Additionally, since the lived experiences of others will differ from my own, I use consultation with clinicians with more expertise, to be emotionally safe and ethical in my interventions.

I’m glad you have made it here. Searching for the right therapist is never easy but taking this step means you’re ready for change in your life. My work as a therapist revolves around helping you feel whole again; whether that means helping you reconnect to your authentic self, break old patterns, improve relationships, or build healthier coping tools. Most of my client’s come to me because something in their life feels off. They’ve done everything they’re “supposed to do” but they’re finding difficulty in enjoying their relationships (romantic, friends, family), jobs, life transitions, and/or how they feel about themselves.

My counseling approach draws upon social justice frameworks, ecological systems theory, cognitive behavior theory, REBT, strengths-based perspectives, internal family systems, attachment theory and trauma-informed approaches.
I wish to serve people of color and other marginalized groups who have experienced chronic oppression and injustices. I would love to work with individuals, couples and families who are ready to step into their power and reclaim their voice. I wish to serve those who are in need of healing and need assistance processing grief, loss, frustration and exhaustion from life's trials and adversities. Being a person of color poses many challenges in this country and seeking help from professionals who look or talk nothing like you makes it far more difficult. I see you and I'm here for you.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
