My communication style

I approach therapy with a calm and patient presence, creating a space where you can feel truly heard and supported. I prioritize empathy and focus on helping you make meaningful connections that lead to deeper insight. When difficult truths arise, I reflect on them gently and compassionately.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've experienced the hardships and resiliency that come with being a first-gen daughter of immigrants. I've also experienced the impact of loving a sibling who struggles with their mental health. My life experiences have allowed me to connect with others powerfully and support them to tap into their emotions, feel seen, and develop curiosity.

My goals for you

I take a collaborative approach to setting goals because I believe you know yourself best. We'll shape a treatment plan that reflects your values, needs, and hopes. I remain flexible and open to revisiting our direction as life unfolds. We'll focus on building insight while offering tangible tools to help you manage symptoms in the present.

Our first session

In our first session, my priority is to create a space that feels safe and supportive. I'll spend time learning about what's bringing you in right now—what's feeling difficult or heavy. We'll also check in about any current risk factors, and if needed, we may create a safety plan together. This process allows me to support you thoughtfully.
