About
I have always been deeply curious about the “why” behind human behavior—what shapes us, guides us, and sometimes holds us back. As both a therapist and a fellow human navigating life’s complexities, I believe that understanding your “why” is a powerful and personal journey. For me, therapy is not about fixing what’s broken—it’s about uncovering strengths, honoring your unique story, and creating space for healing, growth, and authenticity. View 7 Photos With a deep commitment to providing individualized care, I am informed by a strengths-based approach, acknowledging relational elements in healing as well as attachment theory. And I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and identities and bring a culturally responsive lens to my work.
