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.

Anxiety and moodiness are often symptoms of unchecked, conditioned belief systems and behaviors stemming from the past that no longer serve your well-being or mental health. I help clients with self-worth & self-identity issues that may be associated with anxiety, attachment, insecurity, codependency & relationship issues. I have much experience with those who identify with/as introverts, Highly Sensitive Persons, multicultural identities, bicultural relationships, and interpersonal and intergenerational trauma.

As a licensed clinical social worker trained in ADHD, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction recovery, I offer individual counseling for adults facing these challenges. My personal experience with these issues informs my empathetic and insightful approach. I enjoy helping clients manage their emotions, balance responsibilities, accept themselves, and pursue authenticity.

I work with teens, adults, and couples. I believe that true wellness comes from integrating all aspects of ourselves—spiritual, social, emotional, intellectual, physical, and creative. As a California-certified sexual assault counselor, fully trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, I provide trauma-informed care with empathy and expertise. I also specialize in psychedelic therapy preparation and integration, guiding clients through their profound journeys with care and intention.

Difficult feelings can be a doorway for personal growth. Living in modern society with it's many stressors, it is easy to lose connection with what gives us fulfillment. Relationships may fall apart, anxiety may plague us more hours than not, or we may just feel " stuck" and not living up to our full potential. Therapy can help. Although taking the first step to enter therapy can be anxiety provoking, the inner rewards of the experience can be well worth it.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in Maryland and California with 16 years experience working with adults and adolescents.

I’m a licensed therapist based in California specializing in trauma, anxiety, relationship issues, chronic shame, self-esteem, and attachment wounds. I work with adults who are often highly self-aware yet still feel stuck in painful emotional or relational patterns. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, with an emphasis on helping clients better understand themselves while creating meaningful change. I received my MSW from UCLA and integrate trauma-informed approaches including IFS and EMDR into my work.
