Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I specialize in working with teens and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, ADHD, depression, trauma, and intercultural challenges. My clients often feel stuck—overwhelmed by racing thoughts, burnout, or pressure from cultural expectations. I help them build coping strategies, increase emotional resilience, and rediscover a sense of balance. Whether you’re struggling to focus, feeling weighed down, or ready to make a change, I’m here to support your healing journey.

My approach to therapy

My approach is individualized, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. I draw from evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care—adapting each session to your unique goals and challenges. Therapy with me is a judgment-free space where you’re encouraged to show up exactly as you are. I believe healing starts with being truly heard, and I’ll walk beside you as you explore what you want and need, at your pace. My curiosity and belief in your potential guide every step we take together.

What you can expect from me

You can expect a supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and safe. Together, we’ll identify practical tools to manage distress, improve focus, and build healthier relationships—with others and with yourself. My goal is for you to walk away with increased self-awareness, emotional clarity, and confidence in your ability to handle life’s challenges. Whether you're navigating a transition or confronting long-standing struggles, you’ll leave our sessions feeling more grounded and empowered.
