Our Team

I specialize in trauma treatment and integrate evidence-based modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Animal-Assisted Therapy. My work is tailored to each client’s unique needs, supporting deep healing while honoring the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.

I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, and adults from diverse cultural backgrounds, and I strive to create a space that feels safe, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. As a bilingual therapist (fluent in Korean), I am especially mindful of cultural context, identity, and the complexities that can come with navigating multiple worlds.

Life tasks us with many challenges that are often overwhelming to approach. I have pondered the “why” of many life experiences. Therapy is helpful as it offers a safe space for individuals to uncover the mystery behind “why” or identify their own perceived meaning and move forward to grow into their most authentic selves. I believe each human being is unique and has their own journey. The path may not always be clear, which is why I provide my clients a safe, welcoming, nonjudgmental space to discover themselves and the tools needed to establish a personalized life worth living.

I believe everyone deserves to live a life that is fulfilling and true to who they are. Achieving this requires knowledge of our thoughts, experiences, and the many intersecting parts of our identity. But sometimes, that is easier said than done. We may need support and encouragement to recognize what fulfillment looks like for us and what steps it entails. My hope is to support you with that process to the best of my abilities.

Many of us understand how deeply struggles can overwhelm and isolate us, leaving us feeling stuck, confused, or even scared. Welcome. Here, your experience is met with the understanding that it is real and valid. I am here to listen, to believe you without judgment, and to hold space with warmth and acceptance. My practice is grounded in body-positivity, creating a safe haven where all parts of you are welcome.

I believe that you are the expert of your experiences and journey and that I, as your counselor, am there to walk alongside you and support you on that journey. I believe that at the core of our therapeutic relationship should be a foundation of trust, respect, transparency, and empathy. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, life stress, or trauma, my goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable sharing all your thoughts and feelings, free from judgement.

I don't consider myself a typical Reiki practitioner. I am not one to ponder the mysteries of the universe or wax poetic about the depths of my spirituality. I never owned crystals. I found Reiki through my passion for yoga, through my need for stillness and to quiet my mind - always racing with the responsibilities of life. After spending decades in the legal field helping people, but from behind a computer, I began searching for a more hands-on profession that would render purpose and fulfillment.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in trauma, anxiety disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and couples counseling. I am passionate about helping my clients achieve their goals to live an empowered, insightful, and healthful life.

I believe there is no greater journey than that of self-discovery. In moments where we may feel stuck or in struggle, counseling can help us gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and allow us the opportunity to move through our struggles towards a better life. My goal as a counselor is to create a safe space for you to explore your experiences and learn skills to support your continued growth and well-being. I am Spanish speaking and have experience working with individuals of multicultural backgrounds through a trauma-informed approach.

As a therapist, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their experiences, gain insight, and develop tools for lasting change. My clinical focus centers on the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety disorders, and trauma-related conditions. I am dedicated to helping individuals reduce distressing symptoms, develop effective coping strategies, and improve overall functioning through evidence-based interventions.

I hope to provide support and help guide clients through whatever life challenges they may be facing. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, navigating a life transition, healing from trauma, or seeking a deeper connection with yourself or in your relationships, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported.

I believe nothing in life is a coincidence. The challenges we face shape us, reveal our strengths, and help us understand ourselves better. This perspective has guided me my entire life and shaped my approach to therapy, where I support clients in enhancing their self-awareness, building resilience, and achieving meaningful change.

I believe that healing and growth can happen through authentic connection and collaboration, and I aim to meet clients where they are with openness, empathy, and curiosity. I am passionate about creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where individuals feel heard, understood and empowered. I strive to foster a therapeutic environment grounded in trust and respect where clients feel safe to explore their experiences and emotions at their own pace.

Life’s unpredictability can be overwhelming—grief, trauma, anxiety, and depression often leave us feeling disconnected and uncertain. Taking the first step toward healing is courageous, and I’m here to walk alongside you as you rediscover balance, peace, and self-awareness.

I’m passionate about helping clients reach their unique goals and create meaningful change. Taking this first step can feel like a daunting task, but I want you to know that you don’t have to face your challenges alone. As your counselor, I will prioritize providing a safe space for you to explore your experiences, thoughts, and emotions without judgement.

I work with adults navigating a wide range of life transitions — from anxiety, depression, and job loss to divorce, midlife shifts, and finding purpose in uncertain times. I also specialize in helping teens and young adults strengthen confidence and manage performance anxiety in sports.

My goal as a counselor is to collaborate with clients to explore the tools, strengths, and inner traits they already possess to build a more fulfilled and positive life. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Education, with over eight years of experience working in classroom settings. My background in education has shaped my counseling approach by strengthening my understanding of development, learning styles, and the importance of patience, structure, and connection. I bring this foundation into the therapy space to help clients feel supported, understood, and empowered.​
