My areas of specialization include anxiety, pregnancy and postpartum concerns, and relationship issues. I specialize in empowering professionals in high pressure fields to quiet their inner critic and manage stress to feel more confident and balanced. As a provider certified in perinatal mental health (and a parent myself), I am passionate about supporting pregnant & postpartum people to address mood and anxiety concerns and navigate the adjustment to parenthood to feel more connected and at ease. With relationships, I support partners with improving communication and intimacy, rebuilding trust, and developing a deep, lasting bond.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in social justice values. As a biracial woman and child of an immigrant, I am mindful of my clients’ intersecting identities and committed to providing culturally affirming care. Together, we will explore how cultural and societal influences have shaped your unique story, strengths and struggles.
You deserve to have a space where you can prioritize yourself, feel supported and seen, and do not need to "have it all together". Together, we can help you learn tools to feel more connected, empowered and grounded. Check out my website to learn more and schedule a free 15 minute consultation. I look forward to connecting!
