Approach to Therapy:
I strive to provide a warm, affirming, and collaborative therapeutic experience for my clients. As a multiculturally-minded therapist, I emphatically welcome people’s various identities into therapy as we consider how these have shaped their experiences in the world. Using an integration of Adlerian, relational-cultural, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) orientations, l work with my clients to explore and make sense of their experiences, find empowerment, and learn actionable ways to continue striving toward their best sense of self.
Approach to Wellness:
I enjoy being outdoors and admiring the greenery, painting, playing with my domestic shorthair cat Oolong T., and spending quality time with friends and family.
