If you're feeling anxious, stuck, or caught in patterns you can't quite explain; or overthinking, second-guessing, or repeating the same conflicts in your relationships … You're not alone. And I'm here to help. On the outside, you may be functioning well, but internally, something feels unsettled. You may be wondering who you are, what you want, or why certain situations feel so difficult to navigate. Rather than giving advice, I'll help you slow down and begin making sense of these experiences in a deeper, more meaningful way, so that new ways of relating to yourself and others can emerge as you learn to create the change you seek.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, identity development, relationship issues, life transitions, and the particular stress that comes with acculturation, immigration, and belonging. I also work with teens and families, supporting youth around school and peer and family relationships, and collaborating with parents and school systems.
My approach is relational and insight-oriented, meaning I'll work collaboratively with you to notice patterns and explore how past experiences may be shaping your present. If you're ready to better understand who you are and make more intentional choices in your relationships and life, I invite you to reach out and schedule a free, initial consultation.

In addition to my psychological training, I have a lot of experience supporting teens with school, peer, and family relationships. But more important than any licenses or degrees is my instinct to understand what helps adults and teens feel safe enough to openly explore who they are.
