I work hard to empower clients who have trusted me with their care to find solutions to their problems by building their own strengths and by focusing on new ways to behave and think. We move forward towards an improved life rather than dwelling on problems and the past.

I became a psychologist because I believe in the power of genuine connection. I value addressing how past experiences, family dynamics and cultural influences contribute to belief systems, identities and behavioral patterns that may be causing distress in relationships and inhibiting personal growth. I also see neuro/psychological testing as a tool to better understand individual’s phenomenological experience, to provide clarification of personal strengths and struggles and to guide growth by offering individualized tools, skills and resources.

I have worked extensively with individuals suffering from traumatic experiences, attachment issues, stress related disorders, faith transitions, anxiety and depression.

Have you ever felt ashamed? Ever felt like others don’t understand you, but say they do? Those have been my own experiences and have led me to work with people in recovery and their families, survivors of domestic violence/abuse, minority communities and teens. I come from a multi-cultural family with an immigrant parent which has both enriched my life and created unique struggles for me. These experiences, however, have helped me empathize with a wide variety of people and situations. My goals are to support my clients as they navigate their struggles and find hope and strength within themselves.

I know that coming to therapy can be scary, especially for the first time. Change can be scary. But the truth is that we could all use extra help and support sometimes. As a clinician, I work hard to build a safe and comfortable space for people to show up as they are—to give them room to be whoever they need to be. I believe that through this type of environment, people are better able to grow and heal.

These can manifest as depression, anxiety, irritability, anger outbursts and shutdown disrupting personal functioning and family relationships.
