With over a decade of teaching experience gained in seven countries and with learners from over 60 different nationalities, I bring a global and deeply culturally humble perspective to our sessions. I am passionate about helping individuals and families navigate ADHD, depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions in a way that feels empowering rather than pathologizing. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed or are navigating identity, loss, relationship challenges, using Psychodynamic and Control Mastery Theory, I meet clients where they are, understanding that many struggles are rooted in past experiences and beliefs that once served a purpose. Together, we gently explore and test these patterns in a safe, supportive space. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and culturally responsive, creating space for you to feel seen without judgment. I integrate CBT, DBT, ACT, narrative and play modalities along with neuroscience to help clients build insight, regulate emotions, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to support you with empathy and respect for your unique journey. I graduated with a MA in Counseling Psychology from Golden Gate University, and I also have a MA in Applied Linguistics from King’s College London.
