Dedicating time and attention to our own needs can feel overwhelming for so many of us. My goal is to support and challenge you as you jump into the journey of self-advocacy and compassion. I work alongside you as you come through the moments that feel endless, the emotions that feel confusing, and the thoughts that feel overpowering. Together, we can identify strategies to find clarity within your emotions.
I particularly enjoy working with individuals who are navigating the first-generation experience, including maintaining cultural values while learning to prioritize individual needs. Additionally, I enjoy working with individuals around the complexities of multicultural identities. Areas of focus also include anxiety, trauma, and navigating emotions.
Through approaches such as CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed & exposure-based practices, we can explore collaborative approaches to help you become an effective and active presence in your own life. Healthier and happier days is the goal!
