A bit about me
I'm a first-generation Eritrean American woman (she/her), a licensed psychotherapist in California and Texas, and a cross-cultural consultant. I speak Tigrinya and can "ça veut dire quoi" my way through a conversation in French. I'm also a writer, an auntie, and the proud granddaughter of ancestors who resisted colonization while always making time for three finjals (small cups) of coffee.

I specialize in supporting first- and second-generation immigrants, expats, and people from diverse racial and cultural backgrounds who are navigating relationship challenges—whether at home, at work, or in community.
When relationships are in turmoil, it's natural to feel anxiety, anger, sadness, grief, and stress. My approach helps you address this turmoil. Together, we'll focus on practical coping strategies and deeper exploration to create meaningful change.
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just need a space to think through what's next, reach out for a free 15-minute consultation.

In addition to my therapy practice, I support professionals and organizations in navigating cultural complexities to improve workplace dynamics and client care. Whether you're a clinician, attorney, educator, or part of a multicultural organization, I offer tailored workshops, engaging talks, and case consultations to help you engage thoughtfully with issues of immigration, culture, and wellness.
