We all experience challenging times when we don’t feel like ourselves. We may feel stuck, lost, or experience the same unsatisfying relationships. Engaging in therapy, with the right therapist, can help. Within a supportive and collaborative relationship, I actively work with my clients to better understand themselves and their relationships; to acquire healthy coping strategies; and to achieve an enhanced sense of well-being. I am flexible, tailoring the therapy according to the needs of each client. I bring an integrative approach to psychotherapy that includes insight-oriented work, practical interventions, and cognitive/behavioral techniques, all within a nurturing relationship.
I provide psychotherapy to adults and adolescents addressing a broad range of concerns, including depression and anxiety; relationship issues; identity concerns; family issues; and life transitions. I enjoy working on acculturation issues with multicultural individuals, including international students and professionals. I also work with undergraduate and graduate students from local universities.
I believe that pursuing therapy represents a commitment to a hope for positive change, a step that takes great courage. I consider it to be a privilege to work with clients who are committed to achieving a better sense of themselves, more fulfilling relationships, and a more meaningful and happy life.
