Do you struggle to balance the expectations of your parents with your own desires and aspirations, leading to conflict and feelings of guilt? Are you caught between two cultures, wrestling with your identity and societal expectations, which brings worry and self-doubt? Feeling obligated to meet family expectations can create immense pressure and make you believe you're not good enough when you fall short. I am here to empower you to cultivate self-worth and shed the burden of guilt. By fostering a sense of confidence and belonging, together we can liberate you to pursue your passions and identity unapologetically.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am dedicated to empowering you to boost self-esteem, manage guilt, & ease anxiety and depression. Let's navigate relationships and build coping skills for stress, so that you can pursue what brings you joy. Together, we will unlock your potential, transforming apprehension into ambition and hesitation into boundless possibility.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I help adults and teens who struggle with conflict, alienation, and self-doubt develop self-esteem and feel free to pursue joy without feeling guilty for it. I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, trauma, or anxiety related to their relationships or family. My clients also learn self-regulation skills and see a decrease in high anxiety and stress within 2-5 sessions.
