I’m a licensed bilingual mental health counselor who works with adolescents and adults navigating trauma, relationship challenges, depression, anxiety, identity development, family stress, and life transitions. My background includes both school counseling and mental health counseling, I’ve had the privilege of supporting young people, first-generation students, and individuals from a wide range of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds.

You might look fine on the outside, keeping up with work, showing up for others, managing everything, while internally feeling exhausted, anxious, or like you've lost the thread of who you actually are. If that resonates, you're in the right place. I work with adults who are stuck in patterns they can't seem to shift: overthinking, people-pleasing, chronic stress, burnout.
In my practice, I work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, insomnia, ADHD, or dementia who are ready for change but may feel uncertain about where to start. Together, we will identify your unique needs, set meaningful goals, and create a personalized plan that supports healing, growth, and long-term well-being. My goal is to help you not just manage symptoms but rediscover balance, resilience, and hope.
