Do you find yourself caught in a cycle of self-criticism, leading to persistent feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness? Do your emotions sometimes overwhelm you, resulting in reactions that feel disproportionate to the situation? Navigating relationships can become even more challenging when affected by family dynamics. Maybe you have been having concerns with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief/ loss, life transitions, career/school stress, self-harm, and relationship challenges. Perhaps you’ve become discouraged by your attempts to help yourself. That’s what I’m here for.

My clinical approach is authentic and integrative, resulting in a collaborative treatment plan based on client’s culture and values, the best available clinical research, and clinical expertise for my clients to thrive in their lives. I enjoy working with children, adolescents and adults in individual, family and group settings. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, ADHD, OCD, Executive Functioning (EF) skills, complex trauma/PTSD, bipolar disorder, depression, racial/cultural identities, academic performance, family conflicts, relationship issues, grief, life transitions, stress and other life concerns.

Do you feel burdened by others’ expectations of you? Perhaps you’ve followed a path until now, but feel lost or empty despite having done everything right. Others might describe you as successful, but you don’t feel successful or, more importantly, satisfied? You thought that if you chose the right career or started your own family and worked hard at it, that you would find happiness at the end of that arduous road… only to find yourself feeling more lost and confused. I can help you parse out what beliefs are yours and what aren't to assist you in leading a life that aligns with your values, bringing more internal harmony.

I believe therapy is a process of growth in which a client and a therapist collaborate with each other. I strive to provide safe and caring environment where clients can explore their potential to grow.

Seeking therapy is often a difficult process for many individuals of diverse backgrounds due to cultural stigmas and stereotypes around mental health. Trying to then find the "right" therapist can feel impossible whether it's your first time exploring or the umpteenth attempt following another not-so-great experience. I believe a safe therapeutic relationship can create unique opportunities for minority populations who are seeking to better understand and cope with their mental health, especially when approached with multicultural and feminist perspectives that allow for a level of empathy that is often unavailable in other spaces.

I provide a warm and nonjudgmental atmosphere so you will have a safe place to let your guard down and explore. You will be heard.
