My practice utilizes an integrative (i.e., CBT, interpersonal, and humanistic) approach through a multicultural lens. I enjoy working with adults with diverse backgrounds, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, economic status, nationality, and cultural values. Specific areas of experience include insomnia (treatment modality is CBT-i), anxiety (e.g., generalized anxiety, OCD), mood (e.g., dysthymia, depression), stress, life transitions (e.g., transitioning to college, changing jobs), and chronic medical management (e.g., diabetes, heart disease). I can provide assessments/letters for gender affirming surgeries and HRT.

Healing from our suffering—not just coping with it, but transforming it into growth—often requires a journey through it. It’s been said that “feelings buried alive never die.” Fear, sadness, rejection—all want out so that we will not stay stuck in past pain. Once we bring our experience into the light, our truth can be acknowledged and validated. "This thing really happened. I didn't make it up. My feelings are real. " We are able to reach a place of acceptance. Then the fog lifts. Clarity comes and with it the momentum and freedom to finally release, let go, and move forward.

Mental health needs affect everyone differently and yet it can impact how one sees the world, themselves, and others. Furthermore, various diversity factors such as race, gender, religion, also influence the way one see's him/herself and the way that the world sees and treats a person. In my work with children, adults, couples, and families which spans for more than 15 years, I focus on seeing and understanding the whole person in order to assist clients on their journey to healing and acceptance.

I believe you were born with the skills you need to live life. You can create, connect, and cut a rug. Sometimes through life we have an experience, environment, or emotion that is so strong; it separates us from our natural skills. Where we once had ease and order, we now have dis-ease and dis-order. I believe combining our skills, self-determination, and safety will get us back to ourselves and living once again.
