I strive to be culturally responsive in my work, and place a great emphasis on developing a strong, authentic connection with my clients. I highly value collaboration and believe treatment should ultimately be adapted for each unique individual.

Build an authentic relationship within which we will explore areas of frustration, disconnect, or stuckness in your life. We may explore how todays problems stem from ways that we learned to manage life in the past that no longer serve us well.

Our therapeutic relationship supports growth and development! I've spent the past 11 years training therapists and understand benefits of diverse approaches to therapy. My work integrates personal experience, family background, and cultural identity.

I will be very frank and honest with you, while also pragmatic. I like to converse and hear what is on your mind, molding that into a topic related to what your issues are. I look at how you think and what that does to your emotions.
Work to identify strategies and techniques that can begin to offer some relief. We will also begin to alter problematic/less functional narratives that negatively impact your life. Self-compassion is a skill that I work on with almost every client.

It is my responsibility to pay attention to the big picture- noting common themes that come up. Often concerns that we have present differently across different domains (work, home, etc.) but the emotional underpinnings and impact can be similar.
