She has worked with immigrant and refugee individuals, young students and professionals, and people of color.

That experience informs how she approaches conversations about identity, belonging, and life transitions.
Her practice blends client-centered listening with solution-focused and cognitive behavioral work. In plain terms, she listens for strengths, helps set short-term goals, and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Sessions tend to focus on small, actionable steps as well as understanding patterns that keep problems repeating.

Her style is straightforward and focused on making everyday life more manageable. For those balancing work and family, she aims to translate therapy into practical routines and clearer communication at home. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking.
How sessions work
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says. The therapist follows the client’s lead, highlights strengths, and helps clarify what matters most. This approach is useful when someone feels overwhelmed or unsure where to start.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and to build coping skills for anxiety, depression, sleep, and eating concerns. Sessions often include homework that practices skills between meetings.
She will work with the client to decide which approach or combination fits best. That choice is collaborative - based on the person’s goals, current problems, and what feels most practical. The plan can change over time as progress is tracked.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, require less travel, and allow short check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use video or audio in ways that match their bandwidth, comfort, and daily life.
