Welcome! I am glad you are here. I offer a strengths-based, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive approach to create a collaborative, supportive space where clients feel heard and understood. Drawing from CBT, psychodynamic, and mindfulness-based therapies, I tailor each session to your unique needs.
I work with adults navigating stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and life transitions such as career changes, caregiving, and shifting relationships. Guided by diverse life experiences and training at Columbia University, my goal is to help you build balance, resilience, and a greater sense of purpose.
