I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes that healing happens best in spaces that are safe, honest, and non-judgmental. I work with those who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma.

My approach is collaborative and practical. We will focus on understanding what’s showing up in your life, identifying patterns that may be holding you back, and developing tools you can use in real-world situations. I don’t believe in perfection—I believe in progress.

Clients often describe me as direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

Therapist

Healing happens when you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move forward. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, OCD, family conflict, anger management, and cultural & ethnic identity concerns while also helping clients facing depression, trauma, stress, grief, ADHD, relationship challenges, women's issues, physical health concerns, and life transitions. With more than 17 years of experience in mental health, I bring a diverse background that includes private practice, school counseling, and serving as an Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant. These experiences have strengthened my belief that lasting growth happens through meaningful connections—with ourselves, our relationships, and our communities. Whether you're seeking support during a difficult season or looking to create lasting change, I'm committed to meeting you where you are with compassion, respect, and practical guidance.

I highly value relationships, influenced by my own cultural background. Distress that you experience, whether expressed in bodily pain or mental pain, may have roots in the hurt from your past and current relationships. This relationship could be person to person but also person to society and person to culture you are in. Distress from cultural and societal factors is also my focal interest and multicultural sensitivity and awareness is also how I approach counseling. Thus, my practice is based on interpersonal psychotherapy with a multicultural lens. Specific interests in my practice includes understanding what and how cultural factors (e.g., expectations, values) may influence client’s distress and somatic expressions of distress. I am also skilled in other approaches (e.g., cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion-focused therapy) and thus can meet clients’ needs accordingly.

Therapist

I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be honest. My communication style is compassionate, empowering, and nonjudgmental. I strive to create a space where you can speak your truth openly, without fear of being misunderstood or criticized. At the same time, I value direct honesty and gentle accountability because real change often comes from being both supported and challenged in healthy ways.

I take a strength-based, person-centered approach, meaning we focus on what is already working for you while building new tools to help you move forward.
