You've been holding a lot- quietly, and carefully! Maybe you’re trying to move through the various challenges along your fertility, pregnancy, postpartum journey, or the transition to parenthood; navigating life between cultures, or facing a transition that’s left you unmoored. I work alongside couples and individuals who are often carrying the invisible weight of cultural expectations, anxiety, self-doubt and are looking for a space where they can feel seen and supported without having to explain the “why.” I offer a warm, culturally attuned space to help you reconnect with yourself and move toward relief, clarity and healing.

Building a trusting, compassionate relationship is my foremost priority in therapy. I help clients develop strengths, assertiveness, and resiliency to cope with life's challenges while reorienting to more adaptive thoughts + feelings, improving relationships and increasing attunement. I believe that our brains are naturally adaptive and a clear understanding of how your mind works can empower healthy change. That’s why I use a combination of attachment theory, trauma-informed mindfulness, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing), and Gottman Institute's research-based approach to therapy.

I believe therapy can feel gentle and supportive—like a warm, safe space where you are free to go at your own pace. I work with you to integrate your past experience into your current life so you don't have to repeat those experiences or be haunted by them. Life transitions—whether moving to a new country, adjusting to a different culture, or navigating family and relationship challenges—can feel overwhelming and isolating. Counseling can be a space to explore and process these experiences without pressure or judgment.
