Your partner in your healing journey

I help women struggling with depression, anxiety, exhaustion, and the lingering effects of childhood trauma, as well as new mothers navigating the emotional and physical demands of motherhood. I help them find purpose, feel more energized and help them reconnect with themselves and loved ones. I partner with my patients by developing treatment plans that integrate nutraceuticals, lifestyle coaching, psychotherapy, nutrition, rapid transformation therapy, gut-brain health, medication management and much more to uncover the root causes of distress and optimize well-being. 

With a deep understanding of cultural identity and immigrant experiences, I also provide a safe space for immigrant women to heal and build lives filled with self-acceptance and emotional resilience.

My journey into this work is deeply personal. Growing up alongside a loved one with untreated mental illness and navigating my own experiences with childhood, motherhood, and autoimmune illness taught me firsthand that medication alone is not enough. I’ve seen how transformative it is to address the root causes of emotional distress — from unresolved childhood experiences to hormonal imbalance and lifestyle patterns. That’s why I combine thoughtful medication management, psychotherapy, nutrition, Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT), and lifestyle medicine to help women heal more deeply and sustainably.


Do You…..

Hormonal Imbalance

Hormonal imbalances can significantly impact mental health, often leading to symptoms such as anxiety, depression, mood swings, and brain fog. Hormones like cortisol, estrogen, thyroid hormones, and insulin play key roles in regulating mood, energy levels, and stress response. When these hormones are out of balance—due to stress, medical conditions, lifestyle factors, or changes like puberty or menopause—it can disrupt emotional stability and cognitive function. Addressing hormonal health is an important part of supporting overall mental well-being.

Depression & Anxiety
You’re exhausted, irritable, and struggling to find joy in your day-to-day life. You may feel stuck in cycles of self-doubt, emotional overwhelm, or even bursts of anxiety and anger that don’t make sense. You’ve tried medications before, but they only helped a little — or made things worse. You may be wondering, What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I just feel better already?

Here, we work together to uncover what’s beneath the surface — whether it’s hormonal imbalance, trauma, nutritional deficiencies, or patterns of negative thinking. Through root-cause psychiatry, therapy, lifestyle changes, and gentle medication management (only when truly needed), we create a plan that supports your full healing — not just symptom control.


 …feel like you’re running on empty — constantly overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break? You’ve tried to push through, maybe even sought help before, but nothing has brought the deeper relief you’ve been craving.

I offer a thoughtful, integrative approach that goes beyond quick fixes — helping you uncover the root causes of your emotional distress and heal in a way that’s truly sustainable.


Immigrant Stress & Cultural Identity
 You’re navigating two worlds — trying to honor your cultural roots while adapting to a new environment. Whether it’s pressure to succeed, homesickness, identity confusion, or the silent burden of supporting family back home, the emotional toll is real. And often, mental health isn’t openly talked about in your community.

Here, you’ll find a safe space to feel seen, heard, and understood — without judgment. Together, we’ll address anxiety, depression, burnout, and identity stress through compassionate care that honors your lived experience. You don’t have to explain your culture — I get it, and I’m here to help you thrive within it.

Motherhood & Burnout
 You love your children deeply — but you’re also exhausted, depleted, and not feeling like yourself. You may snap easily, feel resentful toward your partner, or struggle with guilt and disconnection. The identity shift of motherhood, combined with constant demands, leaves little space for you — and you’re quietly wondering if it’s normal to feel this unfulfilled.

You deserve more than survival mode. I help mothers regain clarity, balance, and energy through an integrative approach that includes therapy, nutritional support, hormonal assessment, sleep and lifestyle counseling, and more. Together, we’ll help you reconnect with the woman behind the mother.

Trauma & Childhood Adversity
 You’ve done your best to move forward in life — but the past keeps echoing into the present. Maybe you feel like your reactions are “too much,” your relationships are difficult to navigate, or your emotions sometimes spiral out of control. You might not have even realized how much your early life shaped your current struggles — until now.

My approach goes beyond talk therapy. I incorporate Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) to access and release deeply held subconscious beliefs, helping you heal old wounds and rewrite the internal scripts that have kept you stuck. Healing is absolutely possible — and you don’t have to do it alone.
