Are you suffering from constant worry, fear of the future, or persistent feelings of sadness and you don't know why? Are you a part of the immigrant community and struggle with managing the multitude of challenges and recognizing the strengths that come with your immigrant story? Are you a first generation college graduate, and professional in need of exploring how systems are impacting your mood, and future goals? Then therapy may be a great space for you to explore all of these challenges.
I have 10+ years experience working with children, youth, and adults in providing therapy via family therapy, play therapy, and individual therapy. I have been trained in relationally based family therapy by a NYC agency affiliated with the Ackerman Institute. I also have a certificate from NYU School of Social work in Clinical Practice with adolescents.
As a first-generation immigrant professional, I bring a first-hand cultural understanding of the experiences that immigrant communities, and first-generation immigrants encounter which can help provide cultural understanding of systemic/structural challenges and strengths in your healing journey. Join me in a free 20 minute exploratory session.
