About me

I am a licensed professional clinical counselor based in California. I have been providing therapy to clients with wide range of mental health concerns for the past 6 years. I am a compassionate, non judgemental, empathetic listener who loves to support people and help them reach their full potential by identifying and overcoming the obstacles that hinder their personal growth.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help us collaboratively develop a plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked with mum's, adults and older adults who struggle with severe mental illness for 5 years have helped me develop skills that give me the ability to help client (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with children, adults and senior adults struggling with mental health concerns. My clients are courage to participate and commitment to explore growth in their unique way.
