You may feel exhausted trying to break generational cycles without knowing how to start. You silently carry the weight of cultural expectations, systemic oppression, and intellectualization or detachment that was once a survival strategy, but now has become a barrier preventing you from feeling your feelings. Your past therapists have called you "too aware," "insightful," or have tried to get you to unsuccessfully logic your way out of your feelings. You are tired of performing for others. What you yearn for is to truly be seen, a place where you can be feel your feelings instead of having to explain them.
I am a queer person of color, child of immigrants, first generation college graduate, licensed psychologist, and award-winning research expert on intergenerational trauma and I am here to assist you in breaking generational cycles by attuning emotionally beyond the surface of what is being said to understand your unique inner world by deeply listening.
If you choose to work with me, then I will offer deep attunement and listening beyond surface level work. I specialize in long-term therapy and will help you cultivate new relationships to your emotional world, inner child, and other people while unlearning past survival strategies We will break generational cycles and cultivate a space for your full self.
