VOice Psychotherapy

“Reclaim your voice today.”

Licensed Psychotherapist (LCSW 107292) based in California, U.S.  

Welcome! I applaud you for taking this courageous step to prioritize your mental health and seek the support that you deserve. You’re at the right place. 

My work is grounded in the understanding that healing and growth are often complex and challenging journeys. There will be days that feel overwhelming, and staying hopeful can be difficult. I want to assure you that you are not alone in this.

Together, we can explore your inner world and unlearn beliefs that no longer serve you. We can enhance your capacity to coexist with various emotions, tap into your body’s inherited wisdom, and develop healthy ways of moving through life’s dark moments.

Healing isn't a straight line. It is a lifelong intentional practice of consistently choosing to show up for yourself EVEN when it’s hard. However, with support, you can move forward and build a meaningful life aligned with your values.

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

-Khalil Gibran

Specializations

I provide virtual individual therapy to teens and adults, with a specialty in supporting people of color (BIPOC) healing from immigration, intergenerational, and childhood traumas. Other areas I can help include:

  • Grief/Loss

  • Anxiety/Depression

  • Self-love, Self-confidence, and Body Image

  • Relationships (i.e. healing and deepening connection with your parents, friends, partner (s), and self)

  • Boundary Setting

  • Emotion Regulation/Stress Management

  • Identity Crisis/Cultural Stress

  • Life Transitions

  • Career/Work & Life Balance

Treatment Approaches

I prioritize an integrative approach, meaning that I take into account all aspects of your identity and background such as your culture, socioeconomic status, spiritual beliefs, and gender to develop an individualized treatment plan. I am trained in a variety of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (foundational and adolescent), Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Mindfulness, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.

I firmly believe that you are inherently wise, powerful, and resourceful. I focus on harnessing your existing strengths to overcome difficulties and achieve your goals. Each session is a collaborative process that honors your decisions while pushing you to stretch your limits and grow beyond your comfort zone.

I also believe that the tool of “self” is one of the most powerful therapeutic interventions. My background and lived experiences with navigating systematic barriers and trauma healing inform my clinical lens to show up for you with radical acceptance, empathy, understanding, and compassion.
