First session
During your first session, we’ll take a little extra time to get to know you and your story. We’ll review your background, current concerns, and goals for therapy, and I’ll explain my approach so you know what to expect moving forward. This session helps us both determine the best ways to support your growth and well-being.
Strengths
I take a relational and culturally aware approach, blending empathy with practical tools like trauma-informed care, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness. Together, we focus on healing inter-generational wounds, building resilience, and creating balance in your life helping you feel more grounded, empowered, and supported.
Ideal clients
I’m passionate about supporting clients from culturally diverse backgrounds who are balancing multiple worlds that include family expectations, cultural values, and personal goals. Together, we work to heal inter-generational wounds, strengthen self-awareness, and build the tools needed for emotional and relational well-being.
Treatment methods
Eclectic
My approach is relational and strengths-based, while also being directive when clients need clear guidance and strategies. I draw from trauma-informed care, cognitive-behavioral and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools, and mindfulness practices, always with a deep respect for cultural identity and lived experience. Together, we work on healing our roots so you can grow with more strength, balance, and resilience in the present.
