Starting therapy takes courage, and I want you to know I’m rooting for you from the start. Many of my clients are young adults who struggle with chronic overthinking, people-pleasing, anxiety, low self-esteem, difficult family relationships, or feeling stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns. Some grew up feeling responsible for everyone else's needs and now find it difficult to set boundaries without guilt. As a bilingual therapist, I understand how cultural values, family expectations, and generational experiences can influence mental health, relationships, and identity.

I help young adults understand the patterns that keep them feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck. Together we'll identify what's driving those patterns, build healthier coping skills, and create meaningful changes in your relationships, confidence, and daily life.

In our first session, my focus is on getting to know you, what brought you here, what feels most important right now, and what you’d like to work toward. There’s no pressure to share everything at once; we’ll move at your pace. My goal is to create a warm, collaborative space where you feel comfortable, heard, and supported. Clients often leave sessions with a better understanding of why they react the way they do, practical tools they can apply between sessions, and a clearer plan for moving toward their goals.
