I work with people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and eating disorders, among other things. I like to help people deconstruct harmful societal ideals that keep people in pain and alone. I often work with queer folks, gamers, people who grew up in religious but have moved away from traditional religion and people struggling with body image and eating....
Have you been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like you're running on empty? Maybe you're anxious, down, or trying to heal from painful experiences that still echo into your present. Perhaps you’re struggling to find your rhythm in a fast-moving world, or questioning your direction altogether. Life can feel especially heavy when you’re carrying it alone. But here’s the thing—you don’t have to. It's okay to be unsure or even scared about starting this journey. What matters most is that you're here,...
Making the first call is sometimes the hardest part of the therapeutic process. I commend you for your strength and courage in seeking help.

One that will sit with you through your difficult moments and help you to recognize or remind you of your strength. If a mood disorder or anxiety is taking control of your life, I can help you to learn how to ...

Drawing from my training in Somatic Experiencing (SE), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I will work wi...

There's something you are seeking to understand and discover. Though you may not know exactly what that is at this time, the need and desire to search is there. Something is compelling you to begin the quest of transmutating the old and leaden parts of yourself into a more insightful and refined whole. What is important is that you have decided to begin the quest of understanding your past and present, and determining your future. I can join you on this quest. I have a broad experience across t...
I like to think of therapy as a journey of inner exploration and I am along as a guide. I believe that therapy is most effective when it is a combination of intellectual understanding and emotional experience. In that regard, it feels like your feelings are our road signs that we are in the right track to self-growth. I try to not have a specific agenda going into sessions, but rather to go where it is you feel like you need to go at that time. I believe that it is my role to create a safe space...
You have the weight of the world on your shoulders, and have for a very long time. As a child, you had to grow up quickly and take on adult roles, because you had a parent who wasn’t always able to be fully present. Overwhelming emotional pain weighs on you. And you’ve found that the emotional pain shows up as physical pain too - a literal heartache, muscle aches, or back pain. You’ve also lost your appetite or find yourself eating more than usual. You went through something horrific. And you th...

As a social worker and counselor, I help my clients understand who they are and how they fit into the world around them. Second and First-generation Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders, and Black Americans experience this in unique ways. I enjoy working with AAPI and BIPOC clients to identify solutions to affirm personal quality of life while honoring important cultural values and needs. I offer a presence of empathy and non-judgment, meeting you right where you're at in your life. I work wi...
My goal is to provide quality mental health care to my clients in an inclusive and accepting space. The name "divergent" came from the idea that we all come to crossroads in our lives, and sometimes we need a little help choosing which path to take. Divergent also means "tending to be different." My hope is that anyone who has ever felt different, judged, marginalized, or otherwise unaccepted can feel welcomed here. I support individuals of all sexual orientations, gender identities, fai...

**CURRENTLY OFFERING ALL SERVICES VIA TELEHEALTH, INCLUDING EMDR** I help people whose trauma, anxiety, and depression take over at the worst possible moments.
