About Me

I am a licensed therapist specializing in anxiety (all spectrum, such as social anxiety, panic attacks, generalized anxiety, phobias, postpartum anxiety) and trauma. In addition, I work with APIDA clients on cultural adjustment, identity development and self esteem concerns. Often times, stress related to changes in job/career, health, marriage, dating relationships, and/or life phases can create negative impact on mental health if not addressed. Thus, I often assess and address these aspects also in my clients' lives to promote on-going coping and resiliency skills. Client feedback indicates that I am approachable and friendly. Therapy can be intimidating. Thus, I understand that it can be an obstacle to care. I do what I can on-going to help clients understand the focus and therapy goals for our sessions. In addition, we continually touch base to gauge for comfort, fit and approach if anything needs to be adjusted. This process has encouraged many to overcome barriers and found our work together to be meaningful and helpful.
