The way we interact with our environment affects us. Sometimes we are just trying to adapt and adjust to new surroundings. And new surroundings can throw us into identity and cultural conflicts, which are complex and confusing. Or, if we are somehow different from those around us, or others treat us differently for any reason – whether fair or not – we tend to suffer.
The complexity of our backgrounds, race, ethnicity, language and culture creates an intense emotional experience. Dr. Heto has over 15 years of experience in multicultural mental health and working with clients from all backgrounds and walks of life. She is committed to the well being of everyone. Her mindfulness-based approach has shown to be highly adaptable to many different backgrounds, and at Evolve Psychology Center, you will not have to hide pieces of yourself.
