Los Angeles Based I Telehealth & In-person ->
Are you seeking a safe space where you can be understood and celebrated? Are you seeking a space where you can explore the societal, family, and personal struggles? I have expertise in helping children, individuals, families, and couples to navigate life transitions, trauma, and other mental health concerns. Integrating Western and Eastern approaches. Having worked both domestically and internationally, I provide a compassionate and empowering environment for you to feel confident within your own skin and culture so you can break free from the societal expectations of who you should be.
Connecting with people and understanding your story has been a great passion for me. I enjoy helping clients explore the societal, family and personal struggles that make them who they are. As a trauma therapist and EMDR trained therapist, the goal of our therapeutic relationship is to create a safe environment for you to work through your lived experience.
My goal is to guide you to practice self-compassion in the face of adversity, to understand your needs and communicate them effectively, to create supportive boundaries within relationships, and to engage in consistent self-care to thrive with your mental health. Like an archeological dig, the session is your time for discovery and healing.
