Virtual • California


I was born and raised in the Bay Area and have spent more than six years working as a therapist and medical social worker in a variety of settings, including healthcare systems, schools, and community-based programs. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with individuals across the lifespan, which has given me a broad understanding of the unique challenges people face at different stages of life.

I earned my Master’s Degree from California State University, East Bay, and specialize in supporting individuals experiencing PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety, grief, and work or life stressors that impact overall well-being. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with a focus on helping clients process difficult experiences, build resilience, and develop practical tools to navigate life's challenges. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel understood, empowered, and equipped to move toward healing and lasting growth.

I believe therapy works best when it feels real, collaborative, and even a little lighthearted at times. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help teens and adults understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and actions — and how to shift them in a healthier direction. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can explore, grow, and start feeling more like yourself again.

Therapist

I am a licensed therapist who specializes in anxiety depression and behavioral addictions such as gambling, gaming, shopping, and technology use. I became an LCSW because, quite simply, I love people and have the deepest respect for all living things. I have a masters in Social work and background in Psychology, Sociology and Education. I believe that every individual has innate strengths and my goal is to help you tap into yours. Whether you are in a difficult life transition, navigating healthy relationships, or looking to understand yourself more deeply, I am here to empower you so that you can move from feeling "stuck" to feeling capable.

Outside of the therapy room, I am a proud mom and dedicated reader. As someone who identifies as a lifelong learner, I will bring curiosity and warmth to every session. In addition to my private practice, I am a crisis clinician. This background has sharpened my ability to remain grounded, and provide a safe, stable space even when a situation may feel the most chaotic.

I know how heavy life can feel when you’re carrying pain, uncertainty, or self-doubt. But I believe, as a wise old wizard once said, “Happiness can be found even in the darkest of places, if one only remembers to turn on the light.” My role is to help you find that light again. I work with Gen Z and Millennial adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and more. Through integrative, culturally responsive care, I combine evidence-based psychiatry with holistic strategies to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered to create a life that aligns with your true self.

I am a lifelong learner who thrives on exploring new places and connecting with new people. When I'm not in the office, you'll usually find me outdoors enjoying quality time with my family and my dog.

The journey into and through adulthood is rarely a straight line. My education in psychology, education, and marriage and family therapy has deepened my holistic and relational perspective to working with clients. Today, my practice mainly focuses on helping adults navigate life transitions, manage anxiety, and establish healthy boundaries. I am dedicated to creating a warm, insightful space where you can untangle complex feelings and built a resilient foundation for the future.
