Therapy style
I specialize in working with young adults, first-generation Americans, and newcomer immigrants. As a white therapist with loads of privilege, I hold tightly to the values of humility, accountability, and social justice. I see my role as a guide, active witness, and collaborator in my clients' exploration of themselves. My foundation is in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and I like to use DBT's philosophical framework to support my clients in finding a balance between accepting themselves and their lives as they are while working to change or address their unique problems. I bring a sense of both groundedness and levity to my work.
