You’re capable, accomplished, and self-aware. You’ve learned how to manage, adapt, and keep moving—even when relationships, family expectations, anxiety, or old patterns make it harder than it should be. You may understand yourself well and still find yourself reacting, overthinking, shutting down, or repeating patterns you wish you could change.

You shouldn’t have to provide a cultural crash course to your therapist before you can get to work. I work with people across cultures, identities, and relationship structures, including people of color, LGBTQ+ clients, first-gen/children of immigrants, and those navigating non-monogamy and polyamory. Your identity and context are part of the work - not an obstacle to getting started.

Understanding Is the First Step. Change Is the Goal.

Therapy with me isn’t about talking in circles or simply learning to cope. Together, we’ll identify what’s driving the patterns that keep you stuck and work toward feeling more grounded, connected, and able to respond differently.

When the Past Is Still Showing Up — EMDR

Past experiences can continue to shape how we feel, respond, and relate long after they’re over. You may know what happened and still find yourself reacting in ways that feel bigger than the situation. EMDR helps process unresolved experiences so they carry less emotional charge and have less influence over your present.

Relationships That Actually Work — Gottman-Informed Couples Therapy

Most couples don’t need another conversation about who’s right. They need to understand the cycle they keep getting caught in. I help couples move beyond repetitive conflict, rebuild connection, and create patterns that work for the relationship they actually have. I work with both monogamous and non-monogamous couples, including ENM and polyamorous relationships.

Family, Culture & Identity — Without the Extra Labor

Family expectations, cultural values, identity, and the roles we learn growing up can shape how we understand ourselves and our relationships. We can work through those patterns while honoring where they came from, without reducing your experience to a diagnosis or asking you to choose between your well-being and your culture.

Are We a Fit?

My style is direct, warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I bring clinical expertise, curiosity, humor (and sometimes a little colorful language) into the room, and I’m not afraid to ask the questions that get to the heart of what’s really going on.

If you’re ready to understand yourself differently and create meaningful change, let’s talk.
