For much of our lives, we are taught to listen outward—to parents, teachers, and external expectations—often losing touch with our inner voice. Therapy is a space to slow down, reconnect with that inner awareness, and develop a deeper understanding of oneself.

I take an integrative, trauma-informed approach, drawing primarily from psychodynamic and existential therapies. This work focuses on understanding how past experiences, relationships, and core beliefs shape present-day emotions and behaviors. I work primarily with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, identity development, and life transitions, tailoring therapy to each client’s goals.

Currently, I am completing my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Manhattan University, and previously earned both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Engineering, where I worked professionally before transitioning into counseling. My clinical work is informed by both my academic education and my earlier career as an engineer, which allows me to bring thoughtfulness, structure, and reflection into the therapeutic process while remaining responsive to the complexity of each individual’s experience.

As a Dutch proverb reminds us, “shared pain is half the pain,” and much of healing begins when experiences are witnessed within a relationship.
