I tend to conceptualize our experiences through a lens of trauma, attachments, and relationships. I like to work with people to get to the root of the issues that are preventing them from being their "authentic self." My hope is that we can walk along side each other to help you connect and re-connect to your heart's desires.

You'll find that there's quite a bit of humor during sessions, not on purpose, but we all can use it. I also know this community very well and can assist people in navigating resources if needed. I have worked with many populations in the past: youth, Veterans, HIV/AIDS clients, LGBTQ+ youth, and the aging population. Currently my population focus are mostly the aging population and multicultural communities especially those identifying as children of immigrant parents by forced or voluntary migration.

I use a range of therapeutic modalities but my major focuses are Mindful Self-Compassion (this is a skill rather than a type of therapy), cultural affirming, relational, and trauma informed. I am EMDR trained and compliant with EMDR International Association's (EMDRIA) requirements. I am also trained in the Flash Technique that complements EMDR. I am a Level 1 trained Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) therapist. I recently completed California Institutes of Integral Studies' Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research Certification in April 2024 and I'm only providing integration therapy at this time. I am a NeuroAffective Relation Model (NARM) Level 2 Therapist.
