You may feel stuck, lost, lonely, or unsure how to move forward. Therapy can assist you to break through persistent patterns and give you clarity. For almost two decades, I have been helping others through a variety of life challenges including trauma, grief/loss, depression, anxiety, life transitions, family and relationship concerns. As an immigrant, I understand struggles of adjustment and acculturation process. I value working with people who want to grow through their relationships, career, undergrad/grad school or personal self-discovery. This includes exploration of how social identities and systemic forces impacts us.
My trauma-informed approach comes with a holistic orientation toward well-being. My work incorporates mindfulness/meditation, spirituality, and somatic therapy with traditional talk therapy. I also have an interest in the use of psychedelic medicine to facilitate deeper healing and specialize in integration of insights learned through such inner journeys.
I am committed to holding an open, compassionate and nonjudgmental space where you can be heard and accepted. Together, we can envision your meaningful life and explore how to change patterns that are holding you back. I look forward to assisting you in harnessing your strengths and exploring a more authentic connection with yourself and others!
