California Associate Marriage & Family Therapist # AMFT150437
I am currently transitioning my professional affiliation and am not providing psychotherapy services at this time.
As a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT #150437), I provide services only under the supervision of a licensed clinician and within an appropriate clinical setting, in accordance with California law.
If you were previously receiving services through Gemini Professional Counseling, please contact that practice directly for care coordination or questions regarding your care.
I will resume providing services once I am established within a new supervised setting and will provide updates regarding my new supervised practice setting once established.
To heal is to bring together what belongs together, to make whole what has been fragmented, to bring into harmony what has been discordant.

EXPERIENCE
As a Marriage and Family Therapist Trainee at Southern California Counseling Center, I gained valuable experience in community mental health.
Such a diverse population taught me to see the whole person in their context and without judgment; I strive to facilitate a space for expression, reflection, growth and healing with compassion and a healthy dose of good humor. An immigrant with multilingual skills, I hold a strong orientation towards cultural sensitivity and I am keen to work with diverse populations.
