I am a warm and present psychologist who will help you balance acceptance and change. I create a welcoming and collaborative space to explore your challenging emotions and work to accomplish your goals. I believe that meaningful change comes from increased awareness, and I will help you build your awareness toolkit to understand how your emotions, relationships, and past experiences shape your life today. I will invite you to strengthen your mindfulness practice, explore your values, set healthy boundaries, and catch unhelpful thinking patterns. I will tailor therapy to your needs, leading you to a more present and fulfilling life.
I am a licensed psychologist trained in culturally-immersive and evidence-based therapies in adults (CBT, DBT). I treat anxiety, depression, acculturation difficulties, as well as struggles with food and body image. I invite clients to explore how social injustices influence their lived experiences. I am affirming of LGBTQ, poly/ENM, and kink identities.
Whether you are adjusting to a new stage of life or building a new sense of identity, you deserve support and validation. I look forward to joining you on your path towards greater ease, stability, and freedom.
