I work with adults navigating identity fragmentation, belonging, perinatal mental health, and cultural complexity, including TCKs, immigrants, and multiracial individuals.
People come to me when insight alone hasn't been enough. When they understand what's happening but can't seem to shift it. I offer talk therapy, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and TCK coaching worldwide. My approach is grounded in IFS, attachment-based, and deeply relational. I am also a TCK, an immigrant, a bicultural woman of color, and a mother. Instead of footnotes to my clinical work, these identities shape how I understand identity, belonging, adaptation, and the particular exhaustion of never quite fitting neatly anywhere.

Feeling stuck? Inner monologue sounding like: “I’m not good enough”, "I'm letting everyone down", or just the perpetual anxiety loop? How about, you feel like you're trying so hard for everyone else in your life but there’s nothing left for you. These feelings suck. As a late ADHD-er/neuro-spicy person, I get it. I've worked 12 years in the mental health field with adults on issues of anxiety, ADHD, trauma, relationship stuff, shame, family of origin stuff and burnout with the goal of improving self-esteem, quality of life, and to stop beating themselves up and instead engage with self-compassion.

Over the years, I have worked with adults in early parenthood, midlife, and later life, including women navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and fertility stress.
Many people who come to see me say, “I’m not coping as well as I used to.” You may be managing work, family, or responsibilities on the surface, yet inside feel anxious, overwhelmed, or unsettled. Perhaps you are navigating new parenthood, health changes, grief, or an unexpected life transition and need a steady place to sort things through. You may find yourself overthinking at night, losing patience more easily, feeling tearful, disconnected, or unsure of your next step. You want to feel more like yourself again — clearer, steadier, and more confident in how you are handling this season of life.

What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?
The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.
When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?
Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.
How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?
A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviors. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.
Are there specific medications for postpartum depression?
In 2019, the FDA approved the first medication designed to treat postpartum depression. The medication is called brexanolone and is delivered intravenously by a medical professional over the course of a few days. However, typical antidepressants, which are more accessible, can also treat postpartum depression. The disorder is often best treated through a combination of medication and therapy.
