Therapist

I work with adults who grew up with emotionally immature or emotionally unavailable parents. Many come in feeling lonely, empty, or misunderstood, often stuck in people‐pleasing, low self‐esteem, anxiety, or depression, and unsure of who they are or how to form lasting emotional connections. I also support clients facing work stress, major life transitions, and grief. Together, we slow things down, build insight, strengthen identity and boundaries, and develop skills for emotional regulation and healthier relationships so clients feel more grounded, confident, and connected.

I am a licensed mental health professional who works with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, and the emotional impact of difficult experiences. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood as they work through life’s challenges.

I believe therapy is most effective when it is a collaborative process. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I take the time to understand each person’s unique experiences, strengths, and goals. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about what comes next. Together, we explore those challenges, build insight, and identify practical steps toward meaningful change.

I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, and deep respect for each person’s story. My hope is that clients leave each session feeling more grounded, empowered, and confident in their ability to navigate life’s challenges and move forward with greater clarity.

I have a very mellow, approachable style, and my main goal is to help my patients reach their goals. Many of the people I work with feel like they haven’t been truly heard before, or that medication was presented as their only option. I take time to listen and make sure you feel comfortable, understood, and involved in your care. I also grew up in an immigrant household, where mental health wasn’t always talked about or seen as an option, and that experience really shaped how I work with my patients today.
