Hello. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York. I received my masters from Silver School of Social Work, NYU. My undergraduate degree in American Ethnic Studies from University of Washington. I have been providing therapy for the last 10 years. In my decade long career as a social worker I have worked in foster care, hospice care (adults and pediatrics), homeless drop in center, hospitals, and elder community centers and nursing homes. Providing therapy for people of all age groups and all walks of life. I provided individual, couples and family therapy.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first sessions, we will get to know each other; verbalize personal boundaries and set goals. So for our first session, ask me questions and tell me who you are.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strength as a provider is my commitment in providing a non-judgmental space for my clients to explore who they are and where they want to be. Sessions with me are open, non-judgmental, and relaxed. You will be getting homework from me, but I promise it won't be hard, but it will to empower to continue your growth outside of our therapeutic session and to support you daily well-being. As goal oriented as I am, my curiosity as a person will be present and therapy will be guided by you and your needs. Nothing is too hard or uncomfortable to talk about. You will always have a safe space with me.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I help patients learn to identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts, and replace them with more positive, logical ones.

Narrative

I help patients to view their issues as separate from oneself, break down problems into more manageable parts and explore and expand alternative life narratives.

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

I will help you focus on the present moment, move through difficult and negative emotions, and accepting your own thoughts and feelings without judgement.

Grief Therapy

I will help you with explore your feelings related to loss and change. I will help you re-defy your life goals. We will also work through your coping and improve coping skills.

Psychoeducation

We will learn together on understanding how our psychology is intertwined with our physical and social health. Education will be based on evidence scientifically based techniques and resources.
