Hi! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist serving clients in California. I specialize in helping people struggling with anxiety and depression, trauma, life transitions, and grief. I primarily use experiential therapy modalities (Internal Family Systems, AEDP, Coherence Therapy, etc.) that focus on deeper work to address the root causes of clients' struggles. I help people gain more clarity and confidence and feel more peaceful and balanced inside.

Clients often describe therapy with me as grounding, validating, and clarifying. I provide a space where you don’t have to perform, explain yourself away, or have everything figured out.

We move at a pace that feels safe while still supporting meaningful and lasting change. My goal is for you to feel more regulated, confident, and emotionally secure—within yourself and in your relationships.
