No single approach fits every person.

My work is more than just therapy — it's about creating meaningful connections and empowering individuals and couples to break free from the patterns of unhappiness, worry, and stagnation. Whether you're navigating life's transitions, seeking deeper self-awareness, or exploring the edges of your consciousness, I'm here to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and expertise.

My approach is holistic and integrative, blending the biopsychosocial model with a focus on the mind-body connection. I help clients reconnect with their emotions and embodied experiences, creating a pathway for deeper self-awareness and healing. My work often centers on relationships, which can manifest through anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. I also support clients navigating multicultural concerns, identity exploration, racism, oppression, loss, grief, and life transitions.

I have a particular interest in non-ordinary states of consciousness and their potential for healing and growth. I offer dream work, psychedelic integration, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy support — including sitting with clients during ketamine infusions and providing pre- and post-infusion integration sessions to help them process and embody their experiences.

My educational background includes a graduate degree in Cultural Anthropology and a Master's in Social Work from UNC-Chapel Hill. I have also completed postgraduate training in Transactional Analysis and the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy under Ellyn Bader, Ph.D. at The Couples Institute. These diverse influences, combined with my lived experiences, inform my therapeutic approach.

In addition to individual and couples therapy, I offer workshops and specialized sessions designed to support healing and personal growth. If you're ready to explore a deeper connection with yourself and your relationships, I invite you to reach out.

I'm a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC), and I've been working in this field for over ten years, partnering with both adults and teens (ages 12 and up). If you're navigating things like anxiety, depression, anger, big life changes, or trauma, I'm here to help. I use a psychodynamic approach, which means we won't just look at the surface—we'll explore how past experiences may have shaped beliefs and patterns that still influence your life today. Unpacking those hidden patterns can be especially helpful if you've been feeling stuck in chronic anxiety or depression.

That said, if you're looking for something more short-term and focused, I also offer solution-focused therapy to help you tackle specific, immediate challenges. No matter what brings you in, my approach is centered around you, your unique background, and your lived experiences in a conversational and collaborative environment.

Because background matters so much, I have a special interest in supporting children of immigrants as they navigate the beautiful, complex, and sometimes exhausting reality of living between two cultures. If you've ever felt the weight of balancing family expectations and cultural values while trying to figure out who you are, we'll explore those unique experiences together. I also enjoy working with young adults navigating school, identity development, and other important life transitions.

I strive to create a space that feels safe and nonjudgmental, but I'll also gently challenge you when it's needed. I've found that meaningful change often happens at the intersection of support and growth. Let's collaborate and help you find a way forward.

I work with individuals and couples who find themselves stuck in the same patterns — whether that shows up as anxiety, disconnection in relationships, or just feeling off and not quite like themselves. A lot of the people I work with are thoughtful, intuitive, and aware that something deeper is going on, but aren't sure how to shift it.

In couples work, I help partners move out of repeating cycles of conflict and disconnection and toward clearer communication, understanding, and a stronger sense of connection. I tend to work well with clients who want a more grounded and direct approach to therapy.

My approach is relational and body-aware, drawing from somatic work, CBT, and experiential practices. I help clients not only gain insight, but also feel and apply change in their everyday lives.

I have a special interest in working with clients who identify as intuitive, creative, or open to deeper self-exploration. I also provide an affirming space for LGBTQIA+, polyamorous, and kink communities. I offer both individual and couples therapy and have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2009.
