I work with thoughtful, high-functioning adults who have spent years carrying responsibility for others and are now feeling anxious, burned out, or disconnected from themselves. Many of my clients grew up navigating strong family or cultural expectations and learned to stay capable and self-sufficient at the expense of their own needs. They learned to stay small, stay quiet, and people please. My path into this work is rooted in both professional training and lived experience as a woman of color with a bicultural identity. I bring a somatic, parts-informed, and integrative approach that goes beyond symptom management, helping clients understand how their nervous system, early experiences, and relational patterns shape their present-day lives. Therapy with me is collaborative, depth-oriented, and paced with care. Clients often report feeling more grounded, clearer in their boundaries, and more connected to themselves over time — not through quick fixes, but through steady, meaningful change.
