Get to know me

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

Coming from a place of curiosity, I want to find out what you are wanting to address in our sessions. I want to establish a rapport where you feel comfortable sharing what is on your mind. This will set the tone for follow-up sessions in which we will work towards your goals.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am non-judgmental and I am eager to help clients with their issues.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

If you are dealing with issues related to racial identity or immigrant status, I would love to help you as you navigate these issues. When one struggles with their mental health while having chronic conditions, it is difficult finding a therapist who can understand. My background includes extensive medical roles and I am trained to help you manage your comorbidities.
