Are you a teenager or young adult struggling to find your path in life? Are you still figuring out who you are and what you want out of life? You are not alone. Adolescence is a time of incredible transition and identity formation, and can be stressful and confusing. Despite how challenging this time is and that fact that our frontal lobe has not fully developed, we are asked to make some of the most important decisions of our lives (academic, occupational, relational, vocational). Adolescence and young adults often struggle with anxiety, depression, past trauma, substance use, and identity formation.

I focus on learning who a person is uniquely, and I take an active role in treatment, offering genuine warmth and support as well as practical feedback.

You’re the one who keeps it together for everyone else but inside, you’re anxious, overwhelmed, or carrying experiences that still feel unresolved.
To others, you may seem capable and composed. Internally, you feel stuck in unhealthy patterns: overthinking conversations, feeling on edge in relationships, navigating a life transition that’s shaken your confidence, or carrying past experiences that still impact you in the present.
I work with individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, and major life transitions. Many of my clients are seeking clarity, steadiness, and a deeper connection to themselves.

I welcome clients from all walks of life, believing therapy works best when it is authentic and grounded in genuine connection. My mantra: “Be real, be you”.

This guides my work in collaborating with clients to uncover strength, build understanding, and cultivate belonging. Healing may take time, but together we explore autonomy, creativity, and meaningful goals in love, connection, and purposeful work.

As a mother and first-generation immigrant, my lived experience has informed my clinical practice. I enjoy helping others navigate stressful life changes. I provide clients with Adrelian psychotherapy and trauma-informed care, including AF-EMDR. While all clients are welcome, I have focused on helping mothers navigate the challenges of parenting, pregnancy, post-partum concerns, difficulties with fertility, and divorce; as well as First Generation immigrants navigate the acculturation process. Recently, I have branched out, providing services for neurodiverse and twice-gifted clients.

I offer attachment-focused EMDR, an evidence-based modality for the treatment of complex trauma. EMDR can efficiently target debilitating psychological and physiological symptoms. Clients also tend to emerge from this process with markedly improved self-esteem, a personalized mental health “toolkit”, and a revised, empowering life narrative.

I'm an in-network provider with PreferredOne, UCare, United Healthcare, UMR, Aetna, and some other smaller insurance programs.
I have the honor of working with people experiencing a wide variety of concerns: depression; anxiety; grief/loss; life transitions; chronic illness; postpartum depression; sexual abuse; relationship problems; low self-esteem; family of origin; stress and more. I also have a certificate in Narcissistic abuse. My relational approach is based on the belief that within the framework of a trusting relationship with a therapist, clients can explore patterns of behavior and emotions that may relate to earlier relationships. Once a better understanding of the origins of these patterns is developed, people often find lasting symptom relief.

You’re a therapist or helping professional who appears capable and put-together on the outside—but inside you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. You may struggle with chronic self-criticism, perfectionism, or a sense that you’re always in survival mode. Even though you understand the language of mental health, something still feels unresolved. You don’t want quick fixes or surface-level coping strategies—you want to get to the root of what’s keeping you stuck.
