I help high-achieving sensitive people from immigrant and other diverse backgrounds connect more to their authentic selves and thrive. You are a high performer---maybe even the go-to person for other people. Perhaps you identify as an introvert, empath/HSP, creative, changemaker, or healer. You feel deeply, and are concerned about others. Outwardly, you’ve held it together, worked hard to keep others happy. But inside, you're exhausted, frustrated with yourself and others, feeling unseen. You don’t have to do this work alone, amidst the existential grief of the pandemic and persisting inequalities. I'm here for you. I can relate.
Together, we can bring relief to your stress from early life, other people, unjust systems-- and now, the pandemic, the collective losses, the unrest. Using Brainspotting, mindfulness and somatic, integrative approaches, we can help you connect to your grounded deeper self, and shift into a life that feels more authentic, connected, confident, even joyful.
If you're looking for a professional or therapist of color who is caring, nonjudgmental, present, and intelligent to have your back, I'm here for you. “Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” – Howard Thurman, educator, philosopher, theologian, and civil rights leader.
