Get to Know Me

Why did you become a mental health professional?

In my early 20s, I worked with a mentor who was a psychotherapist who inspired me to pursue a psychotherapy career by instilling in me the importance of sharing feelings and getting professional support. Since then, I have provided mental health services in a variety of settings, including psychiatric hospitals, community clinics, and immigration settings.

How do you recharge?

I recharge by spending time with my family and making time for myself.

Do you have any pets?

I have two terriers that I love and adore.
