Great to meet you!

I am Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am licensed in California with 14 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, codependency, depression, anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, & coping with life changes.

My approach to therapy

I am here to support & empower my client's journey towards mental wellness, using tools and theoretical approaches such as Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered approaches, art therapy, and 12 steps.

What you can expect from me

I believe that my clients are the experts of their stories and have many strengths that will assist them in overcoming challenges, becoming more self-aware, and reaching their goals. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in their own ways. Each person is unique and I will approach their perspective with compassion and without judgement.
