Biography

Life’s journey can be filled with challenges, and sometimes you need a guide to help navigate them. As an associate clinical therapist, I am dedicated to helping you craft your own narrative and contribute to a more compassionate and just society. With experience in addressing a variety of mental health issues—including trauma, depression, anxiety, and cultural identity—I am committed to offering empathetic and detailed support. My background in social work enriches my approach, allowing me to deeply understand and address the complexities of your experiences.

I utilize a person-centered approach, tailoring my therapy to the unique challenges and details of your life. This method emphasizes self-discovery, personal insight, and the development of practical tools to aid in your healing and growth. My goal is to support you in finding your own path forward with confidence and clarity.

In our sessions, you can look forward to gaining valuable self-insight, empowerment, and practical strategies for personal growth. My aim is to help you navigate your challenges effectively and support you in achieving your goals.

My educational journey includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California in 2020. Over the past 20 years, I have worked extensively with diverse communities, gaining rich experience that informs my therapeutic practice. This diverse background enhances my ability to connect with clients from various walks of life.
