I am here to remind you: you are not broken. While trauma and adversity may have shaped parts of your past, they do not dictate your identity or your future. I know the immense strength it takes to seek help, and I would be deeply honored to walk beside you as you process painful experiences and rediscover the parts of yourself that feel lost or overwhelmed. Therapy is not about "fixing" you; it is about reclaiming your voice, your resilience, and your sense of self. You are strong, worthy, and you do not have to walk this path alone.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) A structured therapy that uses guided eye movements to help process traumatic memories. It is widely recognized for treating PTSD and trauma-related conditions.
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) Helps clients heal by working with different ‘parts’ of themselves, like inner critics or wounded children. It fosters harmony within the self.
- Schema Therapy Identifies deep-rooted negative patterns formed in childhood. It combines CBT, attachment theory, and experiential methods for change.
Approach Description: I utilize an eclectic, trauma-informed approach that honors a whole mind-body perspective rather than just focusing on a diagnosis. By blending DBT, IFS, EMDR, schema therapy, and CBT, I help clients build emotional resilience. I respect the pacing of your nervous system and am committed to providing culturally humble, affirming care that recognizes intergenerational experiences and systemic impacts.
