As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I am committed to providing a safe and caring environment to empower you on your journey of self-discovery to begin making helpful decisions to impact your relationships positively and fruitfully!
I work with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. As a former software engineer, I can relate to the challenges coming from highly competitive and demanding work environments, unstable economy, acculturation issues, and the rapidly increasing cost of living. These impede our ability to enjoy healthy and meaningful relationships.
In my practice, I combine techniques from Reality Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness to develop insights and coping tools.
