About

Are you experiencing a time of transition? Are you facing difficulty with a particular challenge that is impacting your mental health? Are you hoping to speak with a caring mental health professional about a problem that you no longer want to manage alone? I look forward to creating a welcoming virtual space where you can share your concerns and where we can build a therapeutic rapport as you seek to address any barriers to your mental health and wellness. I am a licensed clinical social worker passionate about providing therapy to: 1. First and second generation people impacted by im/migration, xenophobia, and racism. 2. Young adults struggling with a lack of self worth, anxiety, depression, and sense of self due to conflict with family of origin or adverse childhood experiences. 3. Millenials and GenZers coping with life frustrations around employment, career, finances, relationships, boundaries, self care, and the daily demands of “adulting”. Together, we will assess and prioritize needs, identify goals, create a treatment plan, evaluate progress, celebrate success, and make changes as necessary. I encourage you to have the courage to reach out for support today. Your mental health matters! The first move might not be easy but together we will move through each phase on your mental health journey.
