Psychotherapy is a courageous choice to reflect on the scary thoughts and vulnerable emotions that we justifiably have wanted to avoid. It’s what makes us human, but it’s also what hurts the most to expose to others. I respect the vulnerability that it takes for someone to begin therapy and I prioritize qualities of respect, humility, and empathy in our work together. I strive to have my clients feel heard and seen for who they truly are, while also feeling challenged and guided through this process of self-exploration.
I see my goal as helping people develop a stronger sense of self-understanding and self-acceptance by forming a caring and supportive relationship. I consider myself a generalist - I enjoy working with a variety of problems; however, I have particular interest in working with social anxiety, depression, men's issues, and acculturation/immigration.
