Are you feeling hopeless, stuck, fearful, or uncomfortable in your skin or relationships? While pain is an unavoidable part of life, I’m here to help you carry that burden as we work towards finding solutions. My aim is to create a non-judgmental space where you will be unconditionally supported as we navigate your concerns and fears together. I believe you are the expert on your life. My role is to bring my therapeutic expertise to collaborate with you in finding the relief and balance you seek. There's no one-size-fits-all solution, so we’ll work together to find what works specifically for you.
I prioritize creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can openly share their experiences My practice integrates a range of evidence-based therapies, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) tailored to meet each client's specific needs.
I am a 40-year-old military spouse and mother who immigrated to the United States at the age of 14. My experiences as a woman, a parent, and someone who has navigated the complexities of identity and community in a new country shape my perspective and understanding. These aspects of my identity are not visible on my profile, but I'm comfortable sharing them.
