You look like you have it together. But inside, it feels like the fire alarm won't stop going off.
You second-guess yourself. Boundaries feel impossible. Your body is tense and tired. Your relationships feel strained. You're not sure how much longer you can keep pushing through. Maybe you're navigating intergenerational trauma, the pull between two cultures, or a body that never feels safe.
You're not broken. You're carrying a lot.
I'm an LMFT with 9+ years of experience specializing in trauma, anxiety, somatic healing, and multicultural identity.
As a psychotherapist, certified breathwork facilitator, and EMDR-trained clinician, I blend talk therapy with somatic healing to help you reconnect with your body, culture, and authentic self. As an immigrant, I understand bicultural identity, belonging, and intergenerational dynamics on a deeply personal level.
I specialize in trauma recovery, anxiety, sex therapy, relationship & interpersonal dynamics, and multicultural identity. My practice affirms BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, and ethically non-monogamous clients. I'm accepting new clients throughout California via telehealth.
Let's talk, I'd love to help. And if I'm not the right fit, I'll help you find someone who is.
