Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles, California. I received my Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California (USC). I work with adolescent and adult clients statewide via telehealth. I have several years of experience with helping clients reduce anxiety, depression, and overall stress that life and life transitions create. I am passionate about helping people heal, grow and discover their strengths. My commitment to honesty has also been noted to me many times - honesty that helps clients face their most complex problems in order to become the best version of themselves.

My approach to therapy

My greatest strengths as a provider are my ability to motivate and challenge clients in a supportive, uplifting way. I'm committed to helping people become the best version of themselves, and I do this by creating a warm and welcoming space where clients feel seen, encouraged, and empowered. Many clients have shared that they leave our sessions feelings more hopeful, energized and emotionally lighter. I bring a consistent, compassionate presence to therapy while also holding space for honest reflection, accountability and growth. My commitment to honesty has also been noted to me many times - honesty that helps clients face their most complex problems in order to become the best version of themselves. I strive to balance empathy with a gentle push toward lasting and meaningful change.

What you can expect from me

What you can expect from our first session together is for us to spend the majority of our time talking about how you’ve been feeling recently, and me asking questions to begin understanding the source of your feelings. The first session is about us building an initial connection and helping me get a sense of where we should start. Every person is unique and I want to make sure we form a treatment style that is best for you.
