I have always been fascinated with understanding how people think, how they have come to believe what they believe and how they have become who they are. I have come to realize that many people simply want to feel heard, understood and cared for. This is part of the reason why I became a counselor, along with wanting to help people and destigmatize mental health. Coming from immigrant parents who came to America to enable their children to live a better life than they did, to them that meant getting a practical & stable job. But with time I realized that I didn't want my life to be just practical – I also wanted it to be purposeful.

When trauma, relationship strain, or chronic illness leaves you exhausted and unsure how to move forward, this is understandable. You may feel disconnected from your partner, worn down by medical care, or replaying painful events that make trust hard to hold. Change is possible; therapy can help you find steadier ground and rebuild connection after trauma, illness, or relationship wounds. I help clients process trauma and PTSD, repair relationships through marriage counseling, and ease the emotional toll of chronic illness.
