Great to meet you!

You may be someone who’s always tried your best to show up for others, even when it leaves you feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or disconnected from yourself. Maybe perfectionism, people-pleasing, or lingering imposter feelings have made it hard to trust your own needs. You might notice old patterns from your family, cultural background, or past relationships continuing to shape how you move through the world. Deep down, you want to feel more grounded, confident, and at home within yourself.

My approach to therapy

In our work together, I help you gently explore where these patterns come from and how they’re showing up in your life today. Using relational, culturally sensitive, and trauma-informed therapy—along with inner child work, parts work, mindfulness, and somatic awareness—we create space for healing and self-connection. You’ll begin to understand and care for the parts of you that have carried so much for so long. If nature feels supportive, I also offer optional ecotherapy/outdoor sessions to help you reconnect with calm and clarity. My goal is to help you feel more empowered, aligned, and able to live from a place of authenticity and self-trust.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, I offer an open and supportive space to land. We’ll move at your pace as we begin to explore what’s been coming up for you, including thoughts or feelings you may have been holding silently within yourself. I’m not here to “fix” you, but to provide the time and space needed to better understand yourself and what you’re needing right now.
