About me

I am a licensed professional counselor who supports adults and couples navigating anxiety, relationships, trauma, and life transitions through a relational, psychodynamic, and culturally attuned approach.

My approach to therapy is integrative and grounded in psychodynamic principles, with a focus on how past and present relationships shape our sense of self and our connection to the world around us.

I believe that meaningful growth happens within supportive relationships, and the therapeutic alliance can be a powerful space for self-understanding and change. In our work together, I aim to create a thoughtful and collaborative environment built on empathy, multicultural awareness, kindness, and curiosity. I also incorporate somatic awareness to help clients reconnect with their bodies and deepen their understanding of emotional experience.

Before becoming a counselor, I spent more than two decades working in food and nutrition marketing and advocacy. This experience gives me a unique perspective on the ways career shifts, identity development, and lifestyle changes can affect overall wellbeing.
