Therapist Overview
Welcome! Do you have a child or teen that is struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem or difficulties in school? Are you a young adult who is struggling with a life transition, acculturation, or other stressors? Therapy can help you understand what you are feeling and why. You can learn skills to tolerate distress, cope with difficult emotions and overcome your challenges. Being proactive and reaching out for support takes strength and courage, so I applaud you! I have over 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents and young adults from diverse backgrounds. I integrate a variety of strategies into my approach, including play, expressive arts, and mindfulness. I welcome the opportunity to get to know you. Together we can identify an approach that works for you. One size does not fit all! My approach to therapy is collaborative. While working with children, I also work closely with parents. Together we will formulate strategies that are right for you and your family. I aim to help clients feel empowered by using a strengths-based perspective. I look forward to meeting you and walking beside you on your journey.
