I believe that our lives are shaped by the stories we tell ourselves, and that these stories are informed by our unique cultural, societal, and relational background. Sometimes these stories can leave us feeling stuck in painful patterns, hopeless about the future, and disconnected in our relationships. I specialize in working with individuals and couples to unravel and challenge these unhelpful narratives, give voice to untold stories, and free up space to choose new ways of living that align with your values, hopes, and longings in life.
I am drawn to those who are navigating cultural, intergenerational, or identity-related challenges and am particularly passionate about working with couples - especially those in the LGBTQ+ community, intercultural couples, and polyamorous relationships.
Whether you're facing a specific hurdle or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself or your relationship, I am here to support you on your journey towards healing, connection, and growth. I would love to hear your story. Reach out today to see if we'd be a good fit.
