You deserve to feel heard and safe as you move towards change. You've been doing the best you can with the skills and resources you have. With your knowledge of yourself and my expertise, we can utilize your strengths effectively, build a stronger understanding of self, and explore new perspectives and tools. Within the room, I'll follow your lead, while holding the ongoing threads.


I strongly believe that progress in therapy happens best when we're on the same page. If you have additional questions or need more information in your decision-making process, please let me know!

Treatment Population and Specialties

I treat primarily young adults and adults. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, life transitions and identity development, relationship issues, and generational cultural differences.

Therapeutic Approach

My style is intentional in drawing from multiple modalities to best suit the client's needs. I have particular experience in evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I also incorporate Interpersonal Process Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.

I do my best to maintain a stance of cultural humility, and strive to learn more about the impacts of various diversity factors.
