I am a queer-identified, first generation immigrant, and multiculturally informed psychotherapist. I have experience working with adults who struggle with eating disorders, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, and PTSD. I specialize in working with individuals who are recovering from eating disorders and have body image disturbance, as well as survivors of trauma. I strive to be a fat-positive, anti-diet, HAES informed clinician.

I practice from a strength-based, insight-oriented, and collaborative approach individualized to meet the unique needs of each client. I offer an empathetic, supportive, and accepting environment for my clients to feel heard and understood while also challenged and inspired to take on new perspectives, ways of thinking, and daily practices. Therapy is a process that can provide tools to relieve immediate stress, but also an opportunity to explore the underlying meanings, behavioral patterns, and relationship dynamics in order to lead a life of authenticity and genuine fulfillment. My clients also strive to positively impact society.

Do you feel like you've lost your way? Perhaps you've experienced a recent job change, divorce, or other life event, and the future seems unbearably uncertain? Maybe your use of substances has taken you so far from your values you don't know who you are anymore? When you work with me we’ll combine a science-based therapeutic approach with a deep love of philosophy to help you find a fuller understanding of yourself and your world. Together, we'll use that robust understanding to identify the gap between the life you have and the life you want and develop tools and goals to close that gap.

The clients who are the best fit for my clinical approach tend to be people who want to build a stronger sense of self, learn how to center their own needs, and are looking to foster more self-love and confidence. The clients I work with want to change their relationship with themselves to be more compassionate and loving. They are recovering people pleasers, people who want to learn to be more assertive, often have unresolved trauma, and are ready to break cycles that no longer serve them. They seek support from me to discuss building capacity, dating, relationships, childhood traumas, identity, and healing from abuse and neglect.

One of the pillars of a fulfilling life is the ability to be our authentic selves. Sometimes obstacles, hardships, and missteps cause us to forgo authenticity to survive. As a result, we may feel stuck, lost, or alone in our struggles. As a therapist, I see myself as a partner to my clients in their journey toward healing and growth. My approach is holistic - I consider the whole person and their context in everything I do, and I work collaboratively to ensure that each session feels personalized and effective. I provide a safe space to process where you are and begin to make progress toward where you'd like to be.

I love helping people become who they are meant to be. Oftentimes, past pains and traumas stand in the way of our own personal growth, but I believe change is possible for everyone, and have seen just how resilient people truly are. One of the most wonderful parts about being a therapist is sitting with a person who feels so broken, holding that pain with them, and creating a space for healing. I am here to work together with you to resolve these past issues so that you can shed the weight of pressures that have been placed upon you, and help you live the life you want to live.

Clients often find me when they feel that traditional talk therapy doesn't seem to be enough - when they have gained lots of valuable insight into the "why" behind their experience, but the physiological symptoms persist. Intellectualy understanding our past traumas is different from healing, integrating, and organizing our past (and present) traumatic experiences. Clients who come to me are often engaged in an ongoing battle with their own nervous system responses, and often feel stuck in adaptive patterns without knowing how to break free.

I've been a therapist for more than 25 years and have helped clients to develop insight and skills to address a broad range of life challenges leading to meaningful and lasting change. I believe each of us has our own vision for how life should unfold, and my role is to create a supportive and non-judgmental space where exploration and growth lead to making that vision a reality. You would find my approach to be warm, curious, and engaged rather than reserved. I actively check in to make sure therapy aligns with your needs and encourage open dialogue about your experience in therapy.

I know that therapy can feel intimidating—opening up to someone new isn’t easy. That’s why I meet you where you are, creating a space of trust and safety with empathy and patience. In a capitalist society that pushes us to always be productive, I encourage slowing down—tuning into our breath, bodies, and heartbeats—to reconnect with ourselves and the Earth.
