About

I love working with young adults navigating anxiety, daily stress, and interpersonal challenges within their relationships. I also specialize in supporting couples who want to deepen connection, rebuild trust, and create a more harmonious, fulfilling partnership. In addition, I am passionate about helping clients explore identity conflicts, intergenerational trauma, and self-esteem concerns—especially those with multicultural or immigrant backgrounds who may feel caught between cultural expectations and personal authenticity. View 6 Photos My work is grounded in psychodynamic therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), allowing us to explore how early experiences and past relationships shape your present. I also draw from humanistic approaches, emphasizing empathy, authenticity, and your innate capacity for growth and self-understanding. My work is culturally attuned and trauma-informed.
