About My Clients

Our identities profoundly influence our experiences, and I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life from diverse and marginalized backgrounds. I particularly value working with first- and second-generation children of immigrants who are committed to breaking generational patterns and addressing inherited trauma. My lived experiences enrich our therapeutic work together, allowing me to offer a compassionate and understanding approach tailored to your unique journey.

My Background and Approach

My focus is to help you connect with both your inner and outer resources while fostering a positive relationship with your nervous system. With advanced training in trauma-informed, experiential, and somatic therapies—rooted in Polyvagal Theory—I am dedicated to supporting your personal growth. Your feedback is always valued, and I truly appreciate the trust you place in our work together. Your feedback is valued, and I deeply appreciate the trust you place in our work together. I specialize in using the Felt Sense Polyvagal Model to address trauma and compulsive behaviors (addiction), integrating experiential learning into our sessions. I view addiction not as a failing but as an adaptive response of the nervous system to emotional pain and complex trauma, aiming to challenge stigma and offer compassionate support.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a child of immigrants, I am dedicated to supporting queer, neurodivergent, and first-generation emerging adults. My personal experiences enrich our therapeutic work together, allowing me to offer a compassionate and understanding approach tailored to your unique journey. Imagine working with a therapist who genuinely understands and supports you. I am committed to offering a therapeutic space that is collaborative, authentic, and nonjudgmental. My focus is to help you connect with both your inner and outer resources while fostering a positive relationship with your nervous system.
