What I love most about therapy is that it creates space to explore—to really understand why we think, feel, and do the things we do. Once we have that understanding, we can make conscious choices about what comes next rather than being swept along by old patterns. I work from a psychodynamic and relational perspective, helping you make meaningful connections between your past and present so you can move forward with greater awareness and choice. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and rooted in the belief that you already hold the wisdom you need—sometimes you just need someone to help you find it.

I see therapy as a collaboration between myself and my client. I bring experience, knowledge, empathy, and compassion but I always want to work with you towards what YOU feel is the most important. I value your strengths, insights, and the wisdom of your lived experiences. I love to work with clients who are ready to work together, to give feedback, to try new things, and to engage in honest self discovery. Life brings pain to everyone- but I also believe that we can find resilience even during extremely painful times.

Past patients have sought help with complex trauma histories and the challenges that come with them, such as difficulties in relationships, emotional dysregulation, chronic shame, and a fragmented or unstable sense of self. I’ve also helped patients that struggle with trust, boundary-setting, and persistent feelings of emptiness or disconnection. My therapy style is warm, collaborative, and insight-oriented, grounded in relational psychodynamic and humanistic principles. I believe my job is to help clients undo the loneliness they often feel by being with them in their pain and not running away from it.

Sometimes life robs us of our light. It can happen gradually or suddenly. We might not even know why the light is gone, only that it’s not there anymore.
My goal is to enable you to search for and take hold of that light. I work primarily with depression and anxiety as well as spirituality, processing trauma, and family dynamics.
I focus on young adults transitioning into new life stages, and adults of all ages who feel stuck in life and unable to access their meaning. Trauma in life can prevent us from finding meaning, keeping us from relating to ourselves or others fully.

I specialize in sex and love addiction (CSAT-Candidate), with a focus on the impact of family enmeshment and relational dynamics on attachment, identity and behavior. I support people in rebuilding connection to self, including rediscovering passions and values that can become obscured in addiction.
My work integrates a somatic perspective informed by my background as a massage therapist trained at the Institute of Psycho Structural Balancing in Los Angeles, as well as expressive arts approaches rooted in my performing arts background.

My theoretical orientation is varied depending on your needs. I help you to formulate your therapy goals in a collaborative fashion. Although therapy can be distressing at times, I often use humor to decrease distress and increase coping skills.
In addition, I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) techniques to build resources for positive coping skills. EMDR can help you face uncomfortable emotions, such as anxiety or depression, and reprocess traumatic memories.

We are biologically wired from birth to need safe, accepting connections with others. When we get those, we develop openness to relationships and resilience to cope with life’s inevitable pain. If you lacked that support, patterns can develop that inadvertently keep you stuck in pain. These patterns can include self-criticism, worry, anger, lethargy, numbness, shame, guilt, fear of closeness, and more. My work focuses on helping people with past abuse and neglect rediscover their body’s innate ability to rebalance from stress, relate to themselves with more care, and relate to others more confidently and authentically.

Welcome. If you’ve been feeling stuck or overwhelmed and want to understand what’s really going on, you’re in the right place. I help adults get unstuck by identifying what keeps you in the same loops, whether it is depression, anxiety, burnout, stress, people pleasing, or relationship issues. Then we create a clear plan and take practical steps that lead to relief, stronger boundaries, and confidence in daily life and relationships. I also offer collaborative psychological assessment for clients who are curious about their personality, emotional functioning, and relational patterns.

I have a history of collaborating with clients wanting to learn how to process their trauma amidst a continuously marginalizing environment. Additionally, I have extensive experience with promoting authenticity within intersections of queerness and Autism.

I often use approaches such as CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, and expressive arts techniques tailored to help clients build insight, emotional regulation, self-compassion, and practical coping skills. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences, strengthen resilience, and move toward meaningful, lasting change. Patients can expect a warm, supportive, and collaborative intake experience focused on helping them feel comfortable, heard, and understood. During intake, I will spend time getting to know their background, current concerns, strengths, and goals.

You feel confused, disconnected, and don't know what to do or where to go. You feel like life is passing you by. You want to feel that spark and desire again. You want to reconnect with others, and more importantly, yourself. You want to work out the kinks of your past and gain a new perspective that allows for more joy.

Like most of my clients, I have my own share of childhood trauma. I’ve had to deconstruct the childhood messages that told me I wasn't OK as me; I wasn't enough. I’ve had to learn to set boundaries and learn that I’m not required to put others' needs above my own. I've had to learn how to have relationships, to trust others, and to trust myself. The very path that many of you are starting out on, I have walked myself. This journey is about taking away the power of the past and learning to believe you aren't just faking your successes. I’ve worked hard to reclaim my own story, now I want to help you reclaim yours.

I became a somatic therapist after working at a rape crisis center, where I realized that regular talk therapy wasn’t enough to help people truly heal. I saw clients doing all the “right” things and still feeling stuck - and I recognized parts of myself in that too. That’s what led me to somatic work: learning how the body holds the stories that words can’t always reach. My approach is gentle, body-based, and rooted in curiosity. I care deeply about creating a space where you don’t have to perform healing, you just get to be human.
