The roots of our adult anxiety stretch all the way back to childhood. The way we were parented doesn’t define us, but it does shape how we see the world, how we deal with stress, and how we feel in relationships.
If you’ve ever walked into your child’s room and found yourself knee-deep in broken toys, Happy Meal boxes, a “treasured” collection of bottle caps, and every art project since preschool, you may have wondered: Is my kid a hoarder?
It all started in childhood, in environments that made us feel unsafe, unseen, or unsupported. And if we’re not careful, we pass that stress right down to our kids.
My work honors both science and story. I believe psychiatric care should respect your culture, your legacy, and the responsibilities you carry, not reduce you to a diagnosis.
In our work together, we move beyond symptom management to restore clarity, steadiness, and self-trust, through precise medication management, narrative reflection, and culturally grounded practice.
