Psychology Today Profile


I find fulfillment in collaborating with children and families and am deeply committed to supporting underserved communities. My focus is on assisting clients in navigating attachment challenges, family discord, academic hurdles, self-esteem issues, life transitions, and beyond. Together, our aim is to prioritize learning and honing coping mechanisms, fostering positivity and empowerment to bolster motivation, and fostering greater self-awareness. Let's embark on this journey together!


I am a firm believer in the collaborative nature of therapy, where individuals are supported through their challenges. My objective is to empower and offer warmth to my clients, ensuring they remain motivated throughout their journey. Guiding clients towards achieving their personal objectives and discovering their authentic voice is at the core of my approach. I draw upon a diverse range of therapeutic modalities such as narrative therapy, play therapy, CBT, art therapy, psychodynamic, and Adlerian therapy, tailoring techniques to suit individual needs. My dedication lies in maintaining a multicultural perspective, recognizing the various factors that shape each unique situation.
