My practice is built to support ambitious individuals—including busy professionals and dedicated college students—navigating high-pressure environments, life transitions, and relationship challenges.

Because your schedule is already packed with work or demanding coursework, I offer dedicated session times outside standard hours, including early mornings and weekends.

I practice fluidly in English, Spanish, and Spanglish, honoring your unique cultural or bicultural lived experience.

I became a therapist because I believe deeply in the human capacity to heal and grow. I’ve seen firsthand how transformative it can be to have a space where you feel truly heard, understood, and supported. For more than a decade, I’ve supported individuals navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, eating disorders, major life transitions, and new motherhood. I especially enjoy working with clients who are curious about themselves and ready to engage in the meaningful work of change.

Healthy relationships don't happen by accident—they're built through understanding, communication, and the willingness to grow. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, feeling disconnected from your partner, navigating relationship conflict, or facing intimacy concerns, you don't have to work through it alone.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master's degree from Pepperdine University, and I specialize in helping adults and couples create healthier relationships with themselves and the people they love. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental while also being practical and goal-oriented. I believe lasting change happens when clients feel genuinely understood while also being challenged to grow.

Together we'll identify the patterns that keep you feeling stuck, strengthen communication, develop practical coping skills, and build deeper emotional and relational connection. Whether you're working through anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or questions surrounding intimacy, my goal is to help you leave therapy feeling more confident, connected, and equipped to create meaningful change.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a Master’s degree in Marital and Family Therapy from the University of San Diego. Since graduating in 2021, I have worked with adolescents, adults, and couples in community mental health and outpatient settings.

I became a therapist because I wanted to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. I’m passionate about helping others better understand themselves, work through challenges, and become the best versions of themselves. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to heal, grow, and create a life that feels fulfilling and authentic to them.

I have experience supporting clients navigating depression, anxiety, mood and personality disorders, neurodivergence, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and general life stress. I believe therapy should be a space where clients feel safe, supported, and genuinely heard.

My approach is collaborative and individualized, drawing from modalities including CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, and EMDR. I work alongside clients to better understand patterns, build coping skills, improve relationships, and create meaningful change aligned with their goals and values.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in San Francisco, CA

Finding ADHD therapists in San Francisco starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists can help with executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation, procrastination, focus, organization, and related concerns like anxiety or depression. A psychiatrist for ADHD can support medication management, while a psychologist may offer ADHD evaluation or testing. Some people work with a therapist, a prescriber, or both. If you’re searching for an ADHD therapist for adults, pediatric ADHD support, or a therapist for ADHD in women, look for those details in each therapist’s listed specialties and bio.

San Francisco has many therapists across neighborhoods like the Mission, SoMa, the Richmond, and Pacific Heights, which can make it harder to narrow your options. Consider whether an in-person office works with your commute, transit route, or schedule, or whether virtual appointments give you more flexibility. Since anxiety and depression can also appear alongside ADHD, it helps to choose a therapist with experience in ADHD and related concerns. Before booking, review each bio for approach, appointment availability, session style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in San Francisco can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for ADHD therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. From there, you can compare therapists, choose the format that fits your schedule, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
