Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (California LMFT #53296 and Nevada LMFT #5031-R) providing individual, couples, and group telehealth therapy. With over a decade of experience, I specialize in treating trauma, OCD, and maternal mental health. My approach integrates evidence-based modalities, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

My approach to therapy

I emphasize compassion, empowerment, and tailored care to support clients in achieving their goals and enhancing their well-being. Whether you're navigating parenthood, fertility, trauma, anxiety, OCD, grief, or life transitions, I’m here to support you. I offer a non-judgmental, compassionate, yet direct approach tailored to your unique needs.

What you can expect from me

Through the therapeutic process, you can explore new opportunities, build an empowered sense of self, and increase your confidence. My goal is to guide and support you in discovering the aspects of your life that bring meaning and purpose. Let’s take the first step toward your growth and healing journey—together.
