Great to meet you!

I support individuals and couples across the lifespan who are navigating uncertainty around identity, relationships, family expectations, or major life transitions. You may feel pulled between cultures, roles, or versions of yourself, carrying both resilience and quiet exhaustion. Therapy can be a space to slow down, feel deeply seen, and better understand patterns you’re ready to shift — often with the intention of breaking intergenerational cycles and creating a more grounded, authentic life.

My approach to therapy

I focus on building a warm, compassionate connection, knowing the therapeutic relationship is the strongest predictor to meaningful change. I tailor therapy to your needs while gently challenging patterns that no longer serve you, using CBT, art-based interventions, and somatic-based therapy to support insight and regulation.

What you can expect from me

Therapy with me is collaborative, grounded, and paced with care. As a trauma-sensitive yoga teacher, I integrate mind–body practices to support holistic healing. If you’re seeking a space that values connection, cultural awareness, and meaningful change, I invite you to consider reaching out through email or phone for a free consultation.
