My communication style

I listen actively and make space for you to reflect with me as an empathetic partner. I approach our work with cultural humility—staying curious about your background, honoring your lived experiences, while collaboratively questioning patterns that may feel toxic or unhealthy.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a provider because I grew up between worlds, feeling the gaps between home, culture, and the outside world. As the first in my lineage born here, I learned that we already know who we are—it’s just a matter of remembering, not shrinking into the boxes society creates. That understanding drives my work today.

My goals for you

I help you reach your goals by checking in regularly and making sure our work stays aligned with what you want. You set the goals, and I support you in shaping them into something clear and achievable. Throughout our sessions, I’ll ask what’s working and what needs adjusting so the process stays collaborative and grounded in your lived experience.

Our first session

Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other. I’ll ask about your background, what brings you into therapy, and the goals you’d like to explore. We’ll talk about how we might navigate those goals together, and I’ll make space for any questions you have for me too.
