About
Fit in everywhere and nowhere at the same time? I get it. I help diverse women who juggle multiple cultural identities heal. Maybe you’re the child of immigrants, multiracial or a racially ambiguous chameleon, an expat, “third culture kid”, bilingual (or sad you lost your parent’s language), feel culturally displaced, part of a religious minority, or just don’t quite fit into any one box. You probably feel suffocated by the drive to overfunction, perform, and be what everyone else needs you to be. You might find it hard to get your own needs met and feel unsettled in yourself and your relationships.
This is where I come in, I am here to walk beside you to co-create radically new ways of being, relating, and living. What you need matters. In our work together, we will get to the root cause of your protective patterns of over working and find more compassionate ways of showing up for yourself.
You deserve to give yourself what you need. You also deserve to work with a therapist who is actually culturally-responsive and doesn't use it as a buzz word. Note: I am out on Maternity Leave until April 2023. In the meantime, please check out my new associate therapist Ariel - she's accepting new clients! You can book a consult with her on my website.
