As a psychologist, I view therapy as a highly personal and collaborative journey. My approach is client-centered, meeting you where you are while supporting you in creating meaningful change. I help you reconnect with your emotions, understand what drives your behaviors, and make intentional choices that align with your values. Together, we’ll honor how your upbringing and culture have shaped you while creating space for your autonomy and growth. Clients describe me as a gentle yet direct provider, a partner in discovering new ways forward while honoring your past history and hopes for the future.
My training spans multiple specialties and therapeutic modalities. I take a holistic perspective, helping you recognize patterns as they emerge and connecting them across the many parts that make us human—biological, emotional, social, and spiritual. This integrated approach supports awareness, resilience, and meaningful healing that extends into daily life.
When working with children, I actively involve parents to support growth both in and beyond the therapy room. I see my role as a child psychologist as a guide who helps families apply practical, therapeutic tools in everyday life. My style is gentle, creative, and engaging, creating a space that invites curiosity, connection, and lasting emotional growth.
