Healing from trauma is a personal journey that requires time, compassion, and support. As a bilingual therapist, and an EMDRIA approved EMDR therapist I work with children and adults experiencing trauma and anxiety, creating a space where you feel understood both emotionally and culturally. In a warm, supportive environment, I help clients process difficult experiences at a pace that feels safe and comfortable. I also incorporate EMDR to support trauma processing and stabilization, helping clients build resilience, gain insight, and develop a stronger sense of safety and overall well-being.
Clients often describe me as warm, patient, and understanding. I approach therapy with empathy and curiosity, honoring each person’s story while gently guiding the healing process. Sessions are paced thoughtfully, ensuring that work feels supportive rather than overwhelming. As a bilingual therapist, I value the importance of cultural understanding
I work best with adults who are ready to engage in trauma-focused work and with families seeking compassionate support for children experiencing anxiety or trauma. If you are looking for a therapist who is caring, culturally responsive, and committed to healing, I would be honored to work with you.
