Great to meet you!

I believe care should fit your real life, not the other way around. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and the lasting effects of trauma, combining medication management with talk therapy so treatment feels complete. I also support LGBTQIA+ clients and women during prenatal and postpartum. I speak Spanish and welcome the opportunity to provide care in Spanish when helpful.

I ask a lot of questions before I suggest something new because I want to understand what has worked and what matters most to you. My goal is to help you feel more in control of your own care, not less. I want you to leave every visit with a clear plan and a real say in it. I offer telehealth, including evening appointments, so support can fit your schedule.

My approach to therapy

My approach blends medication management with talk therapy, because most people need more than one piece to feel better. I ask questions and dig into details so care fits your situation. I want you to feel like an active partner in your treatment, with real input into your plan every step of the way.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is mostly about me getting to know you. I will ask about your history with anxiety, depression, or trauma, what has helped before, and what you want out of treatment. We will talk through options together and build a plan you feel good about, not one handed to you.
