I’m deeply committed to providing quality and empathic care to my patients. As a first generation immigrant, I have a unique and personal understanding of the complexities of identity and and importance of narrative. I am also a mother to 4 children which gives me depth in appreciating the challenges and rewards of parenthood when working with my patients. In addition to my clinical training, I am shaped by my own life experiences when working to help my patients to the best of my ability.
