About

Most of my professional life has been with internationals: people standing between two worlds, not fully belonging anywhere, facing unique challenges: living between two cultures, loneliness, fear of the unknown, and losing a large part of the community they relied on. That's why I try to create a space where therapy feels like home: where you can express yourself, and together work to heal your wounds. In my sessions, empathy and science go hand in hand: I listen to your story, understand your struggles, and use evidence-based approaches to help you.
