Have you ever felt like you’re constantly holding your breath, waiting for the moment it all comes crashing down? Maybe on the outside, you’re the strong one, the dependable one. But inside, you’re stretched thin, pulled between the weight of your family’s expectations, cultural responsibilities, and the quiet ache of your own needs going unmet. You’ve worked hard to build a life that makes everyone proud, yet somehow, you still feel like you’re failing.

For so many high-achieving, first-generation BIPOC women, this silent burnout runs deep. You’ve learned to be everything to everyone, to keep going, even when you’re exhausted. Saying “yes” feels like survival. Saying “no” feels like betrayal. But where does that leave you?

It’s okay to want more. More peace. More clarity. More space to just be, without guilt or fear. The pressure to prove yourself, the perfectionism, the self-doubt whispering, “You’re not enough”—it’s not your truth. It’s the story you were taught to carry.

In our work together, we’ll begin to untangle that story.

Using EMDR, Brainspotting, ACT, and Emotionally Focused Therapy, I help BIPOC women like you release what’s been stuck, emotionally, physically, and generationally. We’ll gently shift the beliefs that keep you in survival mode, reconnect with your inner voice, and build tools to help you rest, set boundaries, and feel safe in your own body again.

With over a decade of experience in the mental health field, including six years supporting clients in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, I hold space with compassion, honesty, and zero judgment. This isn’t surface-level talk therapy. This is deep, embodied healing.

You don’t have to choose between honoring your culture and honoring yourself. You don’t have to carry it all alone. In a warm, culturally affirming space, you’ll be supported as you unlearn the pressure to be perfect and reclaim your right to live with ease, softness, and strength.

If this resonates, it might be time to begin your healing journey.

Let’s help find your authentic you.
