Influencer of Growth
After spending time in my office, I want to see you thrive. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and understood. I want to see you achieve your goals and set newer, bigger, scarier ones. You are capable of growth behind your imagination. I want to help provide the tools to make you confident in that growth, too!
Counselor Confidant
Your sessions are sacred and maintaining the privacy and trust with you as a client is a top priority for me. It is crucial that you feel safe in this space. Taking the first step toward opening up and diving deep into the mental weight that you’ve been carrying around is hard. I’ve been there. Being vulnerable and letting someone else in can feel intimidating. You’re not alone in feeling that. I am here to help you feel safe and a sense of reassurance.
Motivational Mentor
I am confident that despite your current circumstances, if you can bring your fullest self, painful parts and all, I will help guide you to being a master of yourself. You deserve to be fully seen, heard, loved, and accepted. I want to motivate you to take big steps, set scary goals, and grow into the person you truly are. That person is inside there, and together, we will help you feel confident to let them out. You deserve to live a happy, authentic life.
More About Me
I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate who is supervised by Jennifer Ryan, LPC-S.
Starting growing up as a first-generation child of immigrants, the strenuous process of acculturation, identity formation, and overall navigation through life’s ups and downs all while trying to be developmentally sound, was a struggle, to say the least. Having “all the feels” was a big part of who I was, and being in a constant state of dysregulation became my first nature. It took many trials and an earnest look at who I was becoming before I could turn that around.
My approach is to allow you to be a blank slate and dig deep to the root of the problem because, ultimately, you are your own expert. Taking on an integrative approach, I tailor sessions to be paced with you through a series of modalities such as neuro-informed counseling, psychodynamic theory, ACT, and other contemporary modes of therapy. As a multimedia visual artist, I also take on the spirit of creativity in the room and work with you to see the capacity of your experiences as the relationship to your emotions, mental state, physiological impact, as well as the quality of relationships around you.
