Although my clinical work is grounded in the clinical research science and well-studied psychological theories, there is complexity and nuance that cannot always be captured within these interventions. Therefore, I am responsive, flexible, and individually tailor evidence-based practices with you in the therapy room.

Even though therapy and healing work can be difficult, I believe there’s space for playfulness, imagination, and moments of laughter and celebration along the way. I am warm and curious in understanding your lived experiences, while holding a systems lens—understanding you not in isolation, but within the relationships, culture, and context that have shaped you.

My therapeutic approach can also be direct and firm, as I hope we can balance acceptance of the moment alongside steady movement towards where you want to go.

Although there may be contradictions in how I described my therapeutic approach, I hope that you can see that holding these “dialectics,” or contradictions and multiple truths, is exactly what helps us meet the moment as it is. Our work together can reflect how these multiple truths show up everywhere in life: the past that shaped you and the future you're shaping, closeness and autonomy, acceptance of where you are and movement towards where you’re going.
