Great to meet you!

Hello! My clinical practice focuses on wellbeing & self-care for women. I typically work with clients struggling with stress, women's issues and/or anxiety- or clients who are wanting to get extra support with daily or work-related stress.

My approach to therapy

I use highly effective approaches: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), brainspotting (similar to EMDR) or humanistic therapy (talk therapy). I like to use a mind-body connection in the work. Sessions are always a warm and safe environment. I wrote my dissertation on stress reduction, wellbeing and self-care and integrate these into my work.

What you can expect from me

It truly is my pleasure to help and be a conduit for personal growth. I work via Telehealth (video or phone). I am able to work with anyone who lives in California (where I'm licensed). I see clients Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday during school hours (typically 9:30-2). Thank you!
