I specialize in counseling adult women who are navigating the complex intersection of health and hormonal changes, grief and loss, career challenges, evolving identities, shifting family roles, and longstanding emotional patterns that can emerge or intensify during this stage of life. My clients are those experiencing increased anxiety, guilt or shame, depression, irritability, mood instability, difficulty concentrating, sleep disruption, loss of confidence, or a diminished sense of purpose. For some, hormonal shifts magnify vulnerabilities that have existed for years but were previously manageable.
Together, we explore both current symptoms and the deeper emotional patterns that shape how you relate to yourself and others. Therapy is not simply about symptom reduction—it is an opportunity to better understand your emotional landscape, develop greater self-compassion, strengthen resilience, and create a more authentic and meaningful relationships.
I use techniques such as reframing, open or closed ended questions, reflection of meaning, and reflection of feeling to help you deepen your insight. Through thoughtful open- and closed-ended questions, we’ll go beyond the surface—uncovering the emotional patterns and core beliefs that shape your relationships.

In counseling teens and adults (men, women and nonbinary), I aim to address executive functioning challenges and sensory needs and focus on focusing on skill-building rather than forcing neurotypical conformity. We'll use practical strategies like structuring, scheduling and breaking down tasks.

I work with black/African-American, Latinx, Middle Eastern, Asian, and clients from various backgrounds. In these populations, we addressed the ways in which culture affects and informs mental health. We will look at the selected interventions within the context of your culture and identity.
