This is especially important when I am working with people of color, women, individuals of the LBGTQIA+ community, and any persons that comes from a minority status.
I help individuals reauthor the stories of their lives to facilitate acceptance over things they cannot control, foster healing within the self and soul, and commit to new outlooks on life that more closely align with your perceptions. My therapeutic style is understanding the cultural competencies behind our mental wellbeing by decolozing mental health.

My clinical interests are largely born from my own life experiences: being the child of immigrants, experiencing the hardships of acculturation, being a woman, being a woman of color, wanting a life of meaning and purpose, having significant and multiple life transitions, worrying about being good enough or accepted, feeling different, overextending myself for the benefit of a loved one.
”A bird sitting on a tree is never afraid of the branch breaking, because its trust is not in the branch, but in its own wings.” Life has a way of damaging our belief in our own ability to maneuver in difficult times. Therapy is not about helping you build your perfect life; it is about helping you build resilience and confidence that you can overcome.

All you need is love. But what happened when love isn’t enough to deal with the lack of communication or fight that never seemed to get resolved. When different ideas and opinions on how to raise the kids or finances start to take its toll. The one person in your life you felt the closest to, is now starting to drift away. How do you balance your own individuality needs while you’re trying to compromise in a team environment? It's overwhelming at times and it’s hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
