I believe in the innate wisdom and invincible power of the human spirit to heal. Between love and fear, I always choose love. It isn't easy, but always right. My goal is not to direct but to subtly guide and illuminate the path forward for you through open collaboration and authentic partnership. Seeking therapy can be daunting, and I understand the courage it took for you to start your journey here. I uphold grace and acceptance of life's challenges, guiding my clients through the ups and downs with creativity, patience, and perseverance. No matter how imperfect or stressful the circumstance, I wish to open your heart and mind to the glimmers and opportunities that emerge to grow and heal from all the pain and darkness. My primary goal is to establish a safe, non-judgmental space where I can see, hear, and acknowledge the individual or couple with genuine curiosity and compassion.

As an immigrant woman of color, mother of two children, crisis counselor, engineer, marketing manager, and passionate career changer in counseling psychology, I bring a multiculturally competent, gender-affirming, global perspective to my work with clients. My background in engineering and business helps me deeply connect to work-related stressors and challenges clients face in the technology and business realms. As a mother of two small children, I deeply understand the internal parenting struggles and relationship challenges that parents and couples encounter.

At the core, I take a trauma-informed, client-centered, and feminist approach, yet I carefully tailor my therapeutic interventions based on the unique needs of my clients. I use Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy modalities. Using the Polyvagal Theory and somatic, body-based work, I incorporate a holistic lens to explore the mind-body connection. I also offer ecotherapy and walk therapy, as I am an avid nature lover and tree hugger. I believe in the healing power of forest bathing and re-establishing harmony with nature as a pathway towards holistic well-being. It is an honor to be a part of your healing journey, and no matter the intensity of your struggle, I am here to compassionately hold your story and experience and help you craft a meaningful path forward.
