My approach is eclectic and trauma-informed, drawing from evidence-based methods like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), as well as Dr. Lindsay Gibson’s model for treating Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents (ACEIP). Additionally, I’m a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Level II (CCTP-II), specializing in relational, chronic, and developmental trauma.
At the heart of my practice is the belief that genuine connection—feeling truly heard and understood—is the foundation for meaningful healing. If you’re ready to explore, process, and grow, I’m here to walk alongside you.
- Complex PTSD (C-PTSD)
- Chronic anxiety and self-doubt
- Difficulty setting boundaries
- Habitually sacrificing your own well-being to avoid conflict or rejection
- Family or relationship trauma, including narcissistic abuse
- Perfectionism and Imposter Syndrome
- Emotional burnout, especially in women and highly sensitive people
- Life transitions and identity exploration
I offer a deeply validating space for those who are ready to move beyond just coping and start feeling empowered and whole again.
I draw from evidence-based modalities such as:
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as well as Trauma Focused ACT (TF-ACT)
- Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
- Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD (CPT)
- Psychodynamic Therapy
- Attachment-Focused Therapy
- Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)
- Mindful Self-Compassion and Self-Regulation Techniques
- Dr. Lindsay Gibson’s model for treating Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents (ACEIP).
At our first session I will ask you about what is bringing you to therapy, your history, what you hope to gain from therapy, and how we might best work together. As I understand meeting a therapist for the first time may not be easy, I make every effort to create a comfortable and supportive space.
As a trauma survivor and first-generation immigrant myself, I feel deeply connected to the struggles and experiences many of my clients face. My personal journey fuels my passion for helping others navigate similar challenges, heal from past wounds, and most importantly, believe that they too can live fulfilling lives—thriving rather than simply surviving.
