Great to meet you!

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, bogged down by self-doubt, or stuck in a cycle of people-pleasing and guilt? You’re definitely not alone! I’m passionate about helping young adults, especially my fellow Millennials and Gen Z, navigate life’s ups and downs—whether it’s tackling academic stress, relationship hurdles, career uncertainties, or the unique cultural pressures you face as a child of immigrants. With over 8 years in mental health, I’m here to help you find your balance.

My approach to therapy

I prioritize creating an open and safe space where you can speak freely and explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment.I use creative approaches to therapy, including writing, visual arts, psychodrama, and somatic techniques. If traditional talk therapy hasn’t quite resonated with you, these methods can make the process more engaging and help you express yourself in natural ways. Together, we’ll learn to listen to your emotions and respond in ways that truly work for you!

What you can expect from me

You can expect to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your emotions. Together, we will develop tools to manage life’s challenges, increase self-awareness, and build resilience. My goal is to help you feel empowered, confident, and aligned with your values, so you can navigate life with clarity and purpose. Each session, whether through creative expression or conversation, will offer practical insights and a sense of progress.
