I specialize in supporting women navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and the lasting impact of trauma. My approach to healing is holistic and integrative — honoring the deep connection between mind, body, and nervous system. Together, we will explore how anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma are quietly shaping your relationships, self-worth, and sense of peace. In spite of being successful in life, you might feel that something is missing.
Using practical tools, mindfulness-based strategies, and trauma-informed modalities, I help clients build resilience, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with their authentic selves. Healing is a journey, and I will be with you every step of the way.

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.
- Multicultural Therapy Acknowledges the role of culture, race, and identity in mental health. It values diversity and adapts treatment to each person’s background.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
Approach Description: I believe in building trusting therapeutic relationships for better outcomes. Clients find that I provide a safe and culturally sensitive place to process their deeper emotional and relationship issues. This is not your typical “talk therapy”. We will embark on a holistic journey of healing and growing with the help of proven modalities like DBT, somatic approaches, and complex trauma therapy. My sessions are light and playful, but the work is serious. If needed, I collaborate with other mental health professionals, like your psychiatrist, for better outcomes.
I believe that it is possible to live the life you love with the right guidance and tools.
