Is your life not turning out the way you hoped? Are you having a hard time solving these problems on your own? With ten years of experience, I’ve supported individuals, couples, families, and groups through a wide range of challenges, including relationships, parenting, co-parenting, behavioral issues, mental health concerns, school difficulties, grief and loss, generational differences, immigration trauma, and more.
My therapeutic approach is Structural Family Therapy, combined with techniques from CBT, EFT, and Psychodynamic Therapy. In addition to classic therapy in the clinic, I provided therapy in the home and community. This experience equips me with a deep understanding of what really works holistically for families across generations.
I am authentic, humble, collaborative, and direct. I offer a culturally sensitive and safe environment where you and your loved ones can uncover new insights, learn effective strategies, and work towards a healthier, more balanced life.
