Patients Seen:
All Ages
I am committed to providing therapy in a supportive and safe environment essential for people to find strength to move toward wellbeing and wholeness emotionally, psychologically, biologically, and spiritually. I inspire people to share their story, gain personal insight and self-awareness, address personal and relational issues, improve communication and problem-solving skills, adjust to life transitions, pursue fulfillment in life despite challenging issues, and find comfort in grief. I am bilingual and have extensive cross-cultural experience, my goal is to incorporate cultural sensitivity in the therapy process.

I specialize in helping adults, older adults, providing individual and couples therapy. My treatment approach tends to be psychodynamic, principle driven, and goal oriented.
