Message to clients
I use practical, evidence-based tools to teach you how to recognize and challenge anxious thoughts, so you can live a life grounded in your values instead of getting stuck on the “what ifs?”. In my work with clients, I also focus on nurturing self-compassion, empowering you to be a "good friend" to yourself and challenge your "inner critic". In sessions with me you can expect to receive support, validation, feedback as well as practical tools to facilitate change. As a first generation American, I specialize in helping clients who are first generation American, immigrants or children of immigrants and navigating the world through the lens of two different cultures while maintaining a strong sense of self.
