Great to meet you!

I am a bicultural, bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 10+ years of experience working within the mental health field. Throughout my career, I have worked extensively providing care to immigrants, adolescents, single mothers, asylum seekers and individuals navigating depression, anxiety, life transitions, and questions of identity and belonging.

My approach to therapy

My work is grounded in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic approaches that attend to the unconscious dimensions of our lives. Rather than viewing symptoms as problems to be eliminated, I understand them as meaningful constellations that can offer insight into our desires, relationships and ways of being in the world.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a chance or us to get to know each other and begin exploring what has led you to seek therapy. We will talk about the concerns bringing you in, your personal history, and what you hope might become possible through our work together.
