Having experienced immigration to the U.S. at a young age has given me the chance to embrace and respect individuals’ uniqueness and their culture. I incorporate multicultural sensitivity into my counseling practice and focus on building resilience and advocacy.

 

My theoretical approach is rooted in Attachment Theory, and I have experience practicing various Trauma-informed therapeutic modalities, including ARC (Attachment, Self-Regulation, Competency), TF-CBT, and SMART (Sensory Motor Arousal Regulation Therapy). I also practice Gestalt Therapy, which emphasizes the here-and-now and builds resiliency by integrating self-regulation skills.

 

One of the main goals of therapy is to create a safe space for clients to go through the integration process: developing self-reflective skills and a mentalizing stance so they can build a cohesive self that is stable, adaptable, flexible, and energized. I am a flexible therapist who tunes into your readiness for change, and I would be honored to be part of your journey.
