I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and received my masters from CSU Northridge. I have worked with kids, teens, and adults, and have been trained in Somatic Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other modalities. I have a bachelor's in nutrition and see health and wellbeing through a holistic lens.
I practice from a compassionate, trauma-informed, and strength-based approach. I offer a mix of Somatic, Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness skills to assist you to connect with your body, identify your thinking patterns, be more aware of your feelings, develop better coping and communication skills, and find your own solutions.
I often use Somatic techniques in my practice. In our first sessions, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and learn how your nervous system influences your physical sensations, emotions & actions. Through dialogue, movement, and imagery, we'll practice techniques to resource, expand your awareness and felt sense, feel grounded, understand underlying emotions, reframe thoughts and make change.
I am here to support you as we create a safe space for you to explore your journey and goals.
