I work with individuals struggling with adjustment disorder, depression, and anxiety. Work with immigrant population, in addition, I enjoy working with first-generation individuals.

My communication style

Open line of communication. I encourage my clients to provide feedback regarding the care they are receiving. I look at our work as a partnership where together we can come to a solution together.

My journey to mental healthcare
