Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
My approach integrates a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to your unique needs. I draw from relational psychodynamic and attachment-based therapy, trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders (UP). Additionally, I incorporate developmental psychology, mindfulness, and multicultural perspectives, ensuring our sessions are holistic and person-centered. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, family conflict, or life transitions, my goal is to guide you toward clarity and healing, empowering you to overcome life’s challenges. I work with adults with concerns related to mood disorders, anxiety, relationships, trauma and life transitions. I also specialize in medical coping, immigration trauma, and identity development. Through my experience in hospitals, schools, and community organizations, I will help you navigate the complexities of life with compassion, strength, and hope. As a first-generation immigrant from Eastern Africa, I bring a unique perspective to my practice, with a deep commitment to supporting diverse communities, including BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals. Beyond therapy, I also mentor new clinicians, lead community initiatives, and advocate for equity and justice.
