I think of life as a cross-country road trip taking us on an adventure. The adventure can be exciting but also scary at times. We make choices on where we wish to go. However, the ride can be smooth or shaky and take us through dark tunnels, across bridges, rivers, and hills. I'm your assistant navigator offering support, encouragement, empowerment, but also challenging you forward towards your chosen destination(s). Together we navigate through any obstacles in order to help you achieve your goals and discover the life you want to live.

I have a compassionate and strengths-based approach to therapy. I believe that it is the relationship we build together that empowers you to work towards your goals. While treatment looks different for each person, I integrate techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapy, EMDR, psychodynamic theory, and trauma-informed practice into my work. As a bilingual/bicultural person of color , I am particularly interested in working with those who want to explore racial/cultural identity.

A lot of my clients (and arguably people in general) need to feel understood. In a couple's environment especially, each individual usually wants to feel seen by their partner. Sometimes it's hard for that to happen though, especially when both parties are feeling hurt. A lot of the times, clients' goals are then to communicate better, which makes sense; if communication was articulated and received my clearly then we'd understand each other more and maybe run into less issues. I come in and try to help my clients feel understood by others, but also I try to help them feel understood by themselves too.
