Couples Therapy
LEARN MOREEvery couple carries their own story. Perhaps yours includes silent longing, invisible resentment, or feeling unseen even when you’re trying your best. Therapy becomes the place where we gently rebuild connection so neither partner has to keep proving their worth to feel loved.
Individual Therapy
LEARN MOREWhen you grow up being told to be strong, or grateful, or quiet, it’s hard to trust your own relationship intuition. In therapy, we hold space for the emotional fatigue caused by this constant emotional labor. You’ll gain language for your needs and learn how to navigate love without sacrificing inner peace.
Anxiety Therapy
LEARN MOREIf your anxiety is entangled with cultural guilt, perfectionism, or fear of failure, you’re not alone. Many first-gen women feel like they can’t show how overwhelmed they are. In therapy, we create space for messy truths and unmet needs without shame. You’ll learn what it feels like to rest without earning it.
Premarital Counseling
LEARN MOREMaybe you already know you love each other deeply, but you also notice the small signs, moments when neither of you feels fully heard or understood. Premarital counseling isn’t a red flag, it’s a gift you’re giving your future together. It’s where we make sure love feels like collaboration, not negotiation, and where you learn to repair well, not just react or withdraw.
Grief Counseling
LEARN MOREPerhaps you’ve spent months being the emotional support for others and forgot how to care for your own heart. Counseling gives you permission to rest, to fall apart, and to rebuild in ways that don’t center perfection or performance but presence and self-trust.
Immigration Evaluations
LEARN MOREYou’ve already shown so much strength, now it's time for that truth to be recognized in your case. My evaluations are built on empathy and expertise. I don’t just document symptoms, I connect them to the cultural, relational, and psychological context that more fully explains your story to the legal system. The goal is simple, you are seen, understood, and supported.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use insurance for therapy?
I am currently an out-of-network provider. However, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Many PPO plans offer partial reimbursement checks with your provider to confirm your benefits.
Do you offer a sliding scale?
Yes! I offer two sliding scale spots for clients with financial need. If cost is a concern, please reach out. I'm happy to discuss options during your consultation.
What does the therapy process look like?
We start with an intake session to explore your relationship history, communication patterns, and goals. From there, we’ll meet regularly to uncover deeper emotional patterns, build new tools for connection, and work toward the relationship you want to create. Therapy is always tailored to your unique story and pace.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule a session?
Life happens! I ask for at least 48 hours’ notice for cancellations or reschedules. Sessions canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice may be subject to the full session fee. No-shows or missed appointments without prior notice will be charged the full session rate, as that time is reserved specifically for you.
How does virtual therapy work?
Sessions are held through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You’ll receive a private link before each session. All you need is a quiet and confidential space, a reliable internet connection, and a device with a camera and microphone.
What if I don’t feel like we’re a good fit?
It’s completely normal to wonder if therapy is the right match for you. Building trust and feeling comfortable with your therapist is essential for meaningful growth. If at any point you feel unsure about our connection or approach, please let me know. We can talk openly about it and decide together whether to adjust our work or explore other options. Your comfort and progress are my top priorities, and I’m here to support you every step of the way whether that means continuing together or helping you find the best path forward.
