I provide individual therapy for adults and teenagers seeking support with anxiety, identity concerns, and life transitions. I help clients better understand the stories that have shaped their lives and sense of self. Our identities are influenced by culture, relationships, environment, and lived experience. When parts of our story go unheard, they can quietly affect how we feel, relate, and move through the world.
My approach integrates narrative therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and attachment-based therapy, grounded in trauma-informed care. Together, we explore personal, cultural, and internal narratives with curiosity and compassion, identifying patterns shaped by past experiences and creating space for insight, emotional healing, and meaningful change.
I offer a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. Through reflection and reframing, therapy supports emotional well-being, resilience, and empowerment—helping you develop greater self-trust and actively shape the story guiding your present and future.
