For many of us, daily life is full of demands, tasks, and high expectations. Whether my clients are children, teens, or adults, they may feel overwhelmed by responsibilities, stuck in their present situation, or frustrated with life. Burnout, perfectionism, and anxiety are common experiences that I meet with understanding and compassion.
I am a warm, inviting therapist with a nonjudgmental, collaborative approach customized for each client. In my practice, I work with narrative therapy, family systems, and mindfulness through a multicultural lens to support and empower my clients. As a former teacher and school administrator, I enjoy counseling educators, students, and lifelong learners.
