Great to meet you!

Hello! I am a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Psychotherapist committed to helping individuals navigate life’s complex challenges. With extensive training in a wide range of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, I specialize in working with diverse and varied populations, tailoring each treatment plan to meet the unique cultural, emotional, and psychological needs of the individual.

I Provide a safe, non-judgmental, and deeply collaborative environment where patients can safely explore their inner worlds. Treatment is built on a foundation of empathy, active listening, and a deep respect for individual autonomy. Whether working with individuals experiencing neurodivergence, mood disorders, life transitions, trauma, or interpersonal difficulties, I utilize an integrative approach to foster resilience, deep self-awareness, and lasting personal growth.

Dedicated to inclusive and affirming care, I work closely with adolescents, adults, couples and families to empower every patient to discover their innate strengths and achieve an improved quality of life.

My approach to therapy

I believe that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process. My practice is rooted in an integrative, person-centered framework, which means I collaborate with you to tailor our sessions to your unique life experiences, cultural background, and personal goals.

  • Collaborative Partnership: You are the expert on your own life. I act as a supportive guide, working alongside you to explore patterns, unpack challenges, and uncover your innate strengths.
  • Safe and Affirming Environment: Healing requires safety. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental, and culturally responsive space where all aspects of your identity are welcomed and respected.
  • Trauma-Informed Care: I operate with a deep understanding of how past experiences and systemic stressors impact your current emotional, psychological, and physical well-being.
  • Evidence-Based Modalities

To best support your growth, I draw from a diverse toolkit of clinical modalities, integrating them fluidly based on what you need in the moment:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To help you identify, understand, and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills: To build practical tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
  • Relational Therapy: To explore how early life experiences and relational history shape your current relationships and self-image.
  • Mindfulness & Somatic Awareness: To bridge the gap between mind and body, helping you ground yourself and manage physiological stress.

What you can expect from me

Our early sessions will focus on building trust and understanding your history. Together, we will identify specific goals—whether that means finding immediate relief from acute symptoms, navigating a major life transition, or deep-diving into long-standing behavioral patterns. We will move at a pace that feels safe, sustainable, and empowering for you.
