I believe in working therapeutically from a place of compassion and gentle straightforwardness. My clients describe me as caring, empathetic, and effective.

Let's Get Started

My story

I am originally from Los Angeles, California. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Science in Counseling from California State University of Fullerton.

I have been a Marriage and Family Therapist in California for over 13 years. I have now begun my journey as a therapist in private practice dedicated to serving individuals, couples, and families.

Beyond my work, I love spending time with my family and friends. My personal experiences have shaped the way I support my clients with deep understanding and care.

What therapy with me is like

I believe in working from a place of compassion and gentle straightforwardness. I utilize an integrative approach, which means I create a personalized plan to best meet your individualized needs. This can be a combination of therapeutic techniques that are used to make you the best version of yourself!

Together, we will look at the whole picture of what’s impacting your mental health, your thoughts, emotions, hormones, sleep, nutrition and nervous system. 

My goal is simple, to help you feel like yourself again.  A calmer, clearer and more confident “you”, so you can enjoy life again instead of just surviving it. I focus on creating lasting change by helping individuals develop emotional resilience, self-esteem, and the ability to express emotions with confidence.

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, we will review background information, family history, purpose of treatment, and create a treatment plan together that is most effective for you.
