Great to meet you!

I work with adults navigating anxiety, self-esteem, and identity concerns, including third-culture and cross-cultural identity experiences. Growing up between cultures or expectations can make it hard to feel grounded in yourself or confident in your choices. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of these layers, and reconnect with a more solid sense of self.

My approach to therapy

My approach is integrative and culturally sensitive, drawing from mindfulness-based practices, CBT, and psychodynamic work. We’ll focus on both practical tools for managing anxiety and deeper exploration of patterns related to self-worth and identity. My style is affirming, thoughtful, and direct, with room for humor when it helps.

What you can expect from me

If you’re feeling worn down by anxiety, stuck in self-criticism, or uncertain about your direction, you don’t have to figure it out alone. If this resonates, I’d be happy to connect and see whether working together feels like a good fit.
