Our life experiences can lead us to question our identity and purpose in the world we live in. This can lead us to anxiety, depression, and trauma. Do you want to improve how you face challenges, function in your relationships, and face overwhelming feelings? I place heavy importance on addressing trauma. Trauma disintegrates the parts that make up your whole self, which can leave aspects of who you are hidden from your awareness. Left unaddressed, anxiety and depression can worsen, which can rob you of the necessary connection that all human beings need to thrive. I aim to help you process unresolved trauma. I believe in a holistic, trauma-informed, and strengths-based approach to healing anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. I draw upon CBT, narrative and solution-focused therapy to create a safe space for you to share your story, heal difficult emotions, and transcend them in order to live your desired life. I have over 10 years of experience working with adults, couples, and families in various capacities. I can help you develop practical tools to regulate intense feelings, communicate effectively with others, and develop healthy boundaries. Feel free to book a free consultation.

When individuals become physically ill, they often work toward improving their health through self-care or visits to their doctor. However, many individuals neglect proper self-care by not addressing their mental health and wellness. We all experience difficult times that impact our ability to manage how we think, feel and behave. Our mental health impacts our physical health and consequently, when we are depressed or stressed, we tend to become ill easily, which in turn affects how we interact with others. I want to assist you in making your mind, body and spirit connection for your total wellness. I treat individuals, couples and families toward wellness and healthier mental and physical functioning. I specialize in a variety of areas including trauma therapy, couple/family therapy, parenting skills, stress management, child/adolescent behavioral issues, mood disorder including anxiety and depression, grief.

Deepak Chopra, in The Healing Self says, "The dividing line between what happens automatically and what happens voluntarily isn’t fixed. Choices matter, and thus the healing self comes into play. On its own the body knows how to survive; it’s up to us to teach it how to thrive.” Welcome to your life! It's yours for the choosing, the healing, the awareness building, the perception changing, and the whole self loving. I can be a grounded guide in this journey. I love helping caregivers, students, and helping professionals by nurturing relationship with their inner wisdom to build stress resilence, strength, and peace.

Steadfast Center specializes in helping adults heal from recent and past abuse, neglect, marginalization, and other painful experiences. We understand how these experiences cause wounds that impact relationships, work, and happiness, and are often the root cause of anxiety and depression. Together we create lasting change by lessening the impact of current symptoms such as anxiety and depression, while developing a deeper understanding of the root causes of each person’s struggles. We seek to understand each person’s experiences and the effect they have on their lives, past and present. I use a holistic, integrated approach that incorporates person-centered, feminist, and multicultural theories. I am inspired to work with individuals struggling with relationships, women's issues, family of origin, and BIPOC/Asian American identity. My goal is to help individuals heal from their trauma and develop a new sense of identity and fulfillment. I use a relational approach to therapy that is warm, compassionate, and straightforward. I also use expressive arts (sand tray) as an additional tool to connect and deepen one's sense of self. I am committed to providing a safe environment for individuals impacted by acute or chronic trauma to work together towards healing.

English | español I enjoy providing clients with therapy sessions they find purposeful and fulfilling to what their life needs. This can be through psychoeducation, hands-on creativity ventures, or a connection with nature and the outdoors. I support clients through different stages of their life from adolescence, to young adulthood, and adulthood. I specialize in having a vast DBT and CBT toolbox for symptoms of anxiety and depression. I am equipped to support clients navigate their worldview through a trauma-focused approach, learning to support and re-parent themselves through self-compassion and kindness. I am attentive to the different “parts” of ourselves wanting change, yet complying with the “norm” of the current situation we find ourselves in. I love exploring topics that can further increase how we embody oneself- such as sexual development and sexual identity. The way parents, peers, and society vicariously educated us may have encouraged vexed feelings about our sexuality. Sexual development is a normal and healthy topic to process due to past trauma, body image/self-embodied experience, and a disconnection with our body and sexual stigma. Allow me to walk with you on this journey.

Many times in life we find ourselves struggling with change. We feel burdened by changes that are out of our control, or discouraged by unsuccessful attempts at creating change. Ideas of who we should be and all of the ways we fall short can so easily conceal our path to contentment and self-love. So why go to therapy? Therapy gives you a non-judgmental space to explore needs, express feelings, and learn new skills. It’s a safe place where a knowledgeable guide will listen with empathy, ask thought-provoking questions, and offer insights, allowing you to understand yourself more deeply. I am passionate about helping adolescents, teens, and adults strengthen their relationship with themselves and the ones they hold dear. Navigating life's changes can feel overwhelming and unbearable at times but you do not have to walk this path alone.
