I’m a licensed psychologist with over 10 years of experience specializing in trauma-informed care and community mental health. I earned my doctorate from the APA-accredited California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University (CSPP), and throughout my career, I’ve been dedicated to supporting children, families, and individuals who have experienced trauma or significant life challenges.
My approach to therapy is eclectic and integrative, meaning I draw from a variety of evidence-based modalities to best meet your individual needs. I often incorporate techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based practices, and relational and strengths-based frameworks. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor each session to support your unique goals, strengths, and pace.
In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know one another and begin building a safe, comfortable space for you to share. I’ll ask questions to better understand what brings you to therapy, what challenges you’re facing, and what you hope to work toward. You’re welcome to share as much or as little as you feel ready—there’s no pressure to tell your whole story at once. My goal is to create a supportive and collaborative environment where you can feel understood, empowered, and ready to begin the process of healing and growth.
