My philosophy is all about balance—finding joy in each moment while blending work, family, fun, and spirituality. In my practice, I focus on helping individuals live in the present, appreciate life’s blessings, and work toward meaningful goals with care and compassion. My approach is interactive, engaging, and sprinkled with humor, making the process both effective and enjoyable.
As an immigrant who came to the U.S. as a child, I learned the beauty of blending different cultures and perspectives. These experiences shape my understanding and compassion, which I bring into my work.
I earned my degrees from Sacramento State University and the University of the Pacific, specializing in counseling psychology and marriage and family therapy. For over 35 years, I’ve been passionate about creating a supportive space where clients can develop the tools to live happier, healthier lives.
I specialize in various therapeutic practices, including individual, family, and couples therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), emotional intelligence, and consulting. These evidence-based approaches help me support clients in processing past experiences, navigating current challenges, and building skills for personal and professional growth. I truly believe in a person’s ability to heal, grow, and thrive.
