I believe in the power of personal growth and self-work/self-awareness because most of the time in life, we can’t change anyone except ourselves; working on yourself is the best way to overcome all the struggles in life through developing coping skills and improve distress tolerance. These skills and tools allow us to face challenging situations and thrive.
I specialize in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, a modality designed to help individuals process and integrate traumatic life events. My clinical focus is particularly centered on intergenerational trauma within immigrant families. I support clients navigating the long-term effects of being raised by emotionally immature or unavailable caregivers, helping them resolve the attachment wounds that often stem from such environments. Additionally, I utilize EMDR to treat acute trauma, such as motor vehicle accidents and other distressing life disruptions.
Psychosis prevention and treatment, I have many years of experiences treating clients with Schizophrenia Disorder and other related disorders.
Anxiety and depression treatment, learn useful tools to help managing and improving symptoms.
As an immigrant myself, I can relate to the challenges that come with adapting to a new culture. I provide support around immigration adjustment, acculturation and cross cultural/cross identity related issues.
I also work with issues listed below:
Crisis intervention
Body image stress or issue
Stressful life event
Work stress
Life transition
Relationship/dating issues
Family conflicts
I use a variety of therapy techniques because I personally believe that one approach doesn’t fit all and each individual is unique and different.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
