Great to meet you!

I am an Antioch LA graduate, who specializes in anxiety, mood disorders and trauma-informed care. I am LGBTQIA affirming. I bring creativity into sessions and strive to create a space that feels safe enough to be transformative. I am currently only seeing individuals in my practice (not couple's or families).

I look forward to meeting with you!

My approach to therapy

I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma and relationships. My approach is intuitive, holistic, and collaborative. My modalities include CBT, Mindfulness, Experiential, and Somatic interventions to create movement/change.

What you can expect from me

Feeling supported and challenged. Learning to understand feelings and use them for growth. Identifying patterns and coping styles that are keeping people stuck. Developing a wide range of tools that are effective. Action steps to take during the week to continue the work between sessions.
