Introduction

Hi, thank you for reading a snapshot of my work. After completing undergraduate studies in psychology, I detoured into high-stress corporate fields of advertising and finance. Those years of experience and my own therapy kept me close to my interest in mental health. It led me to earning an MA in psychology to become a therapist. While at a nonprofit, I gained experience working with individuals, couples, and groups. In this work, it is important for me that you feel seen, heard, and your voice upheld as a guidepost. Coming from a diverse family, I appreciate the complexities of building your self identity and having sense of self. My work often focuses on working with clients experiencing trauma, anxiety, couples/relationship issues, and infertility. I also have experience with clients working in mental health, first responder, media/entertainment, and high performance fields. Supporting others in their walks of life is something I have always tried to practice. As a therapist, it is a privilege to help clients deepen their connections with themselves and others, move with more ease and choose the lives they want to live. I am happy to connect and see if we would be a good fit for great work together.
