Great to meet you!

Hi! I'm a clinical psychologist with almost 10 years of experience who provides individual and couples psychotherapy. I enjoy working with adults of all ages from a wide range of backgrounds who are experiencing issues related to life transitions, depression, anxiety, difficulties with sex and intimacy, family conflict, and other interpersonal problems. I also have extensive experience working with those from disadvantaged backgrounds who may need support coping with social trauma and adversity, particularly around issues of race and other marginalized identities.

My approach to therapy

Together, we explore what is happening beneath the surface and tailor our approach to fit your unique needs. My approach is rooted in attachment and system theories through which we explore how early relationships with caregivers, communities, and institutions influence how you navigate the world. Additionally, I integrate mindfulness and behavioral approaches to enhance insight-building and meaning-making and provide you with new tools to manage stressors. Through our work together, we can uncover your story, access and utilize your strengths, and help you become an active player in your life.

What you can expect from me

I strive to create a collaborative and supportive space where clients feel seen and heard. My intake process involves understanding personal histories and goals to tailor an approach that fosters insight and meaningful change. Progress isn’t linear but is reflected in increased self-awareness, emotional resilience, and healthier relationships. I enjoy working with individuals navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and those seeking to break intergenerational patterns. My approach is warm, reflective, and attuned to both personal and cultural contexts.
