Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and board certified dance/movement therapist with over 20 years of experience. My master's degree incorporated a Somatic and Buddhist mindful approach with a blend of western psychology. My unique background of being half Indian and Japanese gives me an insight into multicultural issues.I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, unresolved /intergenerational trauma, relationship challenges, postpartum depression and life transitions

My approach to therapy

My approach is eclectic and holistic.I use a Person-centered, Attachment-Based, Somatic, Mindful, CBT and Psychodynamic lens, focusing on understanding old patterns as a door to lasting change. I believe in the mind/body connection and use a somatic-based approach. I am also trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples and individuals.

What you can expect from me

We all have the capacity to heal and see ourselves as whole; my training as a therapist puts me in the unique position to be your guide. It's important for me to create a safe, non-judgmental space to explore, connect and share. I look forward to working with you in your journey towards self-acceptance, connection and growth.
