I specialize in treating a range of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, trauma, and emotional dysregulation. Additionally, I assist individuals with adjustment to life changes, personality concerns, and multicultural issues. My approach is grounded in culturally sensitive therapeutic strategies, which I’ve honed over more than two decades of clinical work with culturally diverse adults, young adults, and new parents.
My approach to counseling emphasizes evidence-based treatments, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and draws on elements of Attachment-Based Therapy, Mindful Awareness of Body Therapy (MABT) and Family Systems Therapy, in a compassionate and collaborative manner.
I firmly believe that each individual possesses the inherent resources necessary to navigate life’s challenges. As a therapist, my role is to facilitate my clients’ access to their inner strengths and resources, while also assisting them in developing effective coping skills for healing and personal growth.

I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety, depression or trauma. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first two months and sustained improvement thereafter.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. We'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your behavior to achieve your goals.
