Therapeutic growth builds from consideration of the individual, exploring both unique life experiences as well as the universal biopsychosocial framework that defines the human condition. I believe effective therapy demands an eclectic multicultural approach, with incorporation of psychodynamic, CBT, and DBT elements when motivating behavioral change.
I've been privileged to work with people of all ages, ranging from young adults to senior citizens, living with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use recovery, relationship & identity issues, and adjustment to chronic medical conditions. Additionally, I've had experience working with vulnerable populations impacted by the criminal justice system.

I grew up between languages and cultures, which taught me early that the most important things resist easy translation. I work with individuals and couples navigating complex identities, trauma, mood disorders, and the weight of trying to understand yourself while living your life. My approach is relational, multicultural, and gently challenging. If you’re ready, I’d love to help you find the words.
I’ve supported individuals, couples, and families through roles in counseling, care coordination, and behavioral therapy. Much of my work has focused on marginalized communities navigating anxiety, depression, relational challenges, and cultural and life transitions. These experiences continue to shape my commitment to culturally responsive care rooted in humility, curiosity, and deep respect for each person’s unique story.
