Great to meet you!

Hello, I’m a California Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked with teens and adults to overcome their life challenges and develop the coping skills necessary to become the best version of themselves. I have worked in multiple settings, including as a clinician at a university, counseling parolees, and most recently as part of a group practice.

My approach to therapy

I have focused on helping individuals with life transitions, burnout, relationship issues, and mood disorders such as anxiety, grief, and depression. I also have significant experience working with trauma. I implement a variety of modalities, such as CBT, mindfulness, and other interventions to effectively address client treatment goals.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to create a safe and trusting environment for you to explore and overcome any challenges you face while providing the emotional support you need. I work with clients to identify their needs and help them set their own goals for therapy.
