My passion for mental health has been a driving force throughout my life. During my master’s program, I explored the field of counseling and discovered how well it aligns with my interests and skills. These experiences also highlighted the importance of understanding both individual situations and the systems that influence people’s lives. My goal as a counselor is to create a safe space for individuals to explore their lives.

As a counselor, I love working with people from all walks of life. The clients I work with allow me to reflect and grow as a person. As I hear about their stories of struggle, inspiration, exploration, and growth I understand the power and resilience of the human spirit. The journeys I share with my clients are incredibly meaningful to me, as they illustrate the tangible differences and profound impact they have had on my life.

I hope my clients feel heard, safe, and assured. Taking a step for one’s mental health is difficult in itself. When my clients are in this counseling space with me, I want them to feel free to be themselves, even if it is just for a bit.

I would encourage them to take this leap of faith with an open heart. The journey of counseling is likely to be filled with learning, growth, and self-discovery.

I aim to build a relationship grounded in trust, respect and collaborative efforts.

People are always responding. No matter the situation or the challenge, each one of us is capable of immense resilience.

I am a curious little cat and am always on a look out to learn. I also value establishing a respectful and non judgmental relationship with my clients.

I love watching k-drama, reading books, listening to Taylor swift on repeat and finding new places to eat at!

I work with individuals of all ages and come from diverse backgrounds, including various religions, sexual orientations, countries, and cultures. I am equipped to address different concerns, including but not limited to, anxiety, depression, thoughts of suicide/self harm, self image, academic issues, relationship concerns, violence and abuse, self growth, etc.

My approach to therapy is non directive, person centered, rights-based intersectional lens. Well, if we remove this therapeutic jargon, it basically means that I see my clients as the expert of their lives and my role is to walk along side them, nudging them in the direction that would be worth exploring. I mainly use Narrative approach along with sprinkles of feminist lens, CBT, SFBT among others.
