About
I understand the unique challenges of navigating life as a minority, and I bring both personal experience and professional support to create a safe, affirming space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered.
I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker with 4 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, and families find healthy ways to cope, communicate, and thrive. I work with those navigating stress, anxiety, family transitions, cultural identity concerns, adjustment, depression, or relationship struggles. Many of my clients seek to manage overwhelming emotions, heal from past experiences, and build confidence. As a Christian and a minority, I bring a perspective grounded in faith, resilience, and cultural understanding, creating an affirming space for clients who value the integration of their beliefs in the healing process.
I earned my Master of Social Work from Widener University. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client’s needs. I draw from evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and strength-based practices, while incorporating creative tools like play therapy and expressive activities.
I know that seeking support takes courage, and you don’t have to walk this path on your own. As a Christian, I believe in the power of hope, healing, and renewal, and I strive to create a space where faith and therapy can work hand in hand. If you’re ready to take the next step, it would be my honor to walk with you on this journey.

Depression counseling can help those with major depression, minor depression, postpartum depression, persistent depressive disorder, and more. The providers at Thriveworks in Fremont, CA will develop a unique treatment plan based on your specific experience, needs, and goals.
It is absolutely worth going to therapy for depression — depression counseling helps people better manage their symptoms and get back to living happier lives again.
Depression counseling works by helping people pinpoint life problems, distorted thought patterns, and other causes of their depression, then process and work through them in order to mitigate the negative effects those factors have on their lives.
Common signs of depression include:
Thriveworks depression counseling in Fremont, CA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Depression counseling can last for a few weeks, months, or longer, dependent on the severity of one’s depression as well as their needs and preferences.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay.

Have you ever had a week where nothing seems to be going right? Maybe there was something stressful happening at work, or maybe you haven’t been able to sleep. Then, on top of it all, you’ve noticed that you’ve been struggling to get along with your friends. As a result, you might find yourself feeling down and hopeless that things will ever start to feel better.
When you have depression, these feelings don’t relent very easily. Depression is a mood disorder that negatively affects the way you think, feel, and act for sustained periods of time. For a person with depression, it often doesn’t matter if their workload is alleviated, they’re able to start sleeping better, or they’re feeling better about their friendships — the feelings of pessimism and hopelessness either persist or will return.
It doesn’t have to be this way. We want you to know support is available. Call our office at Thriveworks in Fremont, CA, or use our online booking tool to help you get started.
There are several different forms of depression, including major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, and postpartum depression. How or when symptoms present can differ between disorders.
There are a number of symptoms that can let you know that you may have a depressive disorder, including:
Oftentimes, depressive disorders can occur alongside other mental health conditions, such as anxiety disorders or substance abuse issues. They can also, for example, develop in a person dealing with chronic physical illness.
We understand that talking about your depression can be incredibly difficult. For some people, they even hesitate to bring up that they’re struggling to even their closest friends out of fear of rejection. It’s typical to want to hide how you’re feeling, but there is support when you need it. Our licensed therapists and counselors in Fremont, CA can help you manage your depression.
Through therapy, a mental health professional can provide a judgment-free space for you to talk about your depression. Whether your depression is mild, moderate, or severe, our team will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan to address your unique needs. Forms of therapy such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) emphasize learning to identify and reframe harmful thinking patterns to give you more control over-regulating your emotions. Your therapist will help you build coping skills into your life like exercise, a healthy diet, and other self-soothing activities to help you with your depression and might also recommend medication in addition to your therapy sessions.
Dealing with depression can make you feel trapped under a weight that feels impossible to lift — but you don’t have to go it alone. At Thriveworks, we can provide you with the quality care you need when you’re ready to take the next step.
We offer appointment times in the morning, afternoon, and evening during the week and on weekends. Can’t make it into our offices? No problem — we provide online counseling through video chat as well. These appointments come at an affordable rate, as we accept many major forms of insurance. If you ever can’t make an appointment, we have a flexible cancelation policy with no penalties or fines.
