Navigating through life can prove to be a tough task to tackle alone and sometimes reaching out for support is often the first and hardest step forward. I strive to meet clients where they are and provide them with a warm nonjudgmental space where they feel safe and supported to explore and process through what is going on within throughout their therapeutic journey.

As a child of immigrants, I understand the complex thoughts and feelings you may be experiencing. The conflicting emotions of gratitude and obligation for the sacrifices your parents made to be in this country. The confusion of living in a household with a set of values and culture that differ from your social, school, and professional life. The feeling of not quite belonging among your family/peers and feeling stuck in the “In-between”. All of these experiences understandably leave you to feel depressed, isolated, anxious, sad, frustrated, misunderstood, and unheard.

Eirene simply means peace and reconciliation within yourself and with other people. How is your relationship with yourself? What about with other people? When those relationships are unbalanced it can look like repeating the same dysfunctional patterns no matter how hard you try. It can feel like you are stuck, unmotivated, frustrated and don't have the energy to make the changes you desire or not being sure of what changes you need to make to live a fuller, more complete life. You may also feel overwhelmed, anxiety filled, doubt in yourself and your abilities, anger/irritation, and setting impossible goals for yourself.
