Get To Know Me
What do you view as a key component of the therapeutic relationship?
I believe in walking alongside you, and I trust that your whole & resilient self will lead you toward healing and lasting change.
What does a first session with you look like?
Like most new relationships, ours will begin with curiosity. I am interested in learning about you and hearing your story. Some questions I might ask include: What brings you to therapy now? Where do you feel stuck? If you could walk out of therapy with something you do not already have or know, what would that be? How would your life be different once you have/know this "thing"? And, of course, I invite you to ask me questions, too.

Work HistoryI am a Pennsylvania- and New Jersey- licensed professional and nationally certified counselor (LPC, NCC), as well as a certified trauma professional (CCTP). I have worked with diverse populations that include children, teens, adults, and families in community behavioral health, and adults (18+) in group practice. I have also worked alongside survivors of trauma, co-creating safe spaces and trusting relationships, while bearing witness to their stories, healing, and thriving. I focus not on asking, “What is wrong?” but on “What has happened?” I am inclusive and open to collaborating with folks of diasporic and intersectional identities and have an especial interest in holding space with members of the AANHPI community.
Currently I collaborate with adults (18+) who struggle with feeling “less than and not enough.” This belief often fuels chronic stress and the sense that constant striving is necessary for success, approval, and belonging. Over time, this can create a relentless internal narrative: "If I rest, I am lazy. If I am lazy, I lack ambition. If I lack ambition, I fall behind. If I fall behind, I lose respect. If I lose respect, I bring shame." If any of this resonates, I welcome you.
I trust that you are enough. I hope for you to feel safe in the space we share and that you recognize my role is to care for you, not to fix you. I see you as a person—not as a "problem to be fixed."
I trust that you are the expert on you. You might find yourself being gently guided (back) toward your true north—especially if working so hard to prove that you're "enough" has caused you to lose your way a little. Together, we explore who you are beyond what you’ve had to do to survive, to prove yourself, and to save face. Slowly, you may begin to recognize that your enoughness does not reside solely in your productivity, achievement, and status, in your fulfilled duties, obligations, and expectations. Rather, it resides in your humanness: your lived experiences, inner wisdom, values, relationships, and capacity for connection.
