I understand it can be scary to ask for help. Sometimes we feel we have the answers and that it is "weak" to reach out. It takes strength to admit you need help instead of bottling up your pain. I invite you to take this step. I specialize in anxiety, grief, life transitions, gender/sexuality, and relationship counseling. I believe that healing happens when we feel supported and cared for. My goal is to come alongside you in your healing and to help you find ways to foster growth within yourself while also helping you find a supportive community.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in supporting neurodivergent individuals and those with chronic health issues with a neuroaffirming approach. Living with a chronic condition–anxiety, depression, Autistic or ADHD burnout, medical trauma, chronic illness, to name a few–can feel exhausting, overwhelming, and relentless. Taking care of yourself and getting through the day can feel like a job in and of itself. Finding a way to support your own unique body, brain, and experience is crucial to navigating life with a chronic condition. You are not broken, but you may not feel whole.

First and foremost, therapy is a relationship. Your sense of being seen, understood, and connected when we meet is crucial to our work together. I identify as a queer femme and work most often with other LGBTQ folks, women, and creatives. I believe that the problems in our lives do not define who we are and exist in the context of broader social, political, and cultural systems. Many of our problems, particularly grief, anxiety, and trauma, are non-linear in nature. There are times in our lives when they become louder, and times when they quiet.

My goal is to meet clients where they are at in the moment, being fully present and attuned to their needs. I believe in focusing on strengths and interpersonal connections. We are all in this life together. Oftentimes the answer is somewhere within ourselves, we just need help finding it.

Are you living the life you want to live? Or the story someone else wrote for you? The world is so loud. Whether it is society, school, work, family, social media, religion, or friends, there are so many voices telling us how we ‘should’ be. With all that noise, it can be hard to hear our own voice. Living out of alignment with ourselves can lead to feelings of anxiety, loneliness, depression and psychic pain. Our job, together, is to create a calm, safe space where you can tune in to yourself, connect with yourself, learn to accept yourself, and figure out how to live a life that honors your values and the desires of your heart.

Creating a meaningful and purpose-filled life in an increasingly complicated and often hostile world is tremendously difficult. It is not surprising that this results in some painful and challenging periods in our life. As a therapist, I am always in awe of the incredible effort and strength people show in the face of this challenge and in pursuit of building a good life for themselves. My focus is on that good life and all of the systems and identities that intersect with our efforts at caring for ourselves and our communities. I work with anyone ages 17 and up who needs some extra support and skills to navigate life's challenges

You may find yourself caught in anxiety or OCD patterns you understand completely — but still can't stop. Or carrying trauma that talk therapy has never quite reached. Or feeling disconnected in your relationships despite knowing exactly why.
I help self-aware, high-achieving teens and adults move through their anxiety, OCD, and trauma — not just manage around it — using ERP for OCD, Brainspotting for trauma, and the Gottman Method for couples.
My approach is collaborative, affirming, and tailored to your history and goals. I work with creatives, veterans, men, and LGBTQ+ individuals in Pasadena and online throughout California.

I specialize in working with people who struggle with anxiety, depression, and other mood or adjustment difficulties. As an experienced family practitioner, I particularly enjoy working with mothers and parents. I received specialized training in perinatal maternal mental health care and have experience working with women who may be struggling with pregnancy or post-pregnancy related concerns. I consider it a privilege to be able to walk with women as they transition into the sacred journey of motherhood, navigate the work-family juggle, and embrace the joy and stress of parenthood while being chronically sleep-deprived.

My clinical experience has focused primarily on helping individuals in the adolescent to young adult age, which is a critical phase of development, addressing issues around identity formation and family conflict. Diagnoses and presenting problems most prevalent for this age include major depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, oppositional defiance, ADHD, schizophrenia, self-harming/high risk behaviors (cutting, eating disorders, and substance use) and suicidal thoughts & behaviors. My work with this particular age population often includes helping the family system in areas such as conflict resolution, family communication patterns and repair in attachment & connection.

Are you someone who is put-together on the outside, but feels anxious, burned out, or disconnected on the inside? You might feel like you're carrying the weight of the world — the news, your work, your relationships — and still somehow expected to keep it all together. Underneath it all, you may wonder if this is just... how life is now. If you’re ready to stop just surviving, to feel more like yourself again, and to live with more intention, depth, and ease—and most of all, if you’re ready to reconnect with your life, your relationships, and who you really are—I’d like to help you get there.

Stress & anxiety have a buzz to them. Not only do they feel loud in our heads, but they hum through our bodies as well. Our internal experiences shape how we think, feel, & relate to ourselves & others. You may find yourself stuck in overthinking, or in behavioral patterns that quiet the noise temporarily but don’t seem to have a lasting impact on the way you move through the world. With curiosity & support, you can build self-knowledge that creates meaningful change. As specialist in stress & anxiety, trauma recovery, resilience, & relational health, I help people understand their patterns & move toward a grounded, fulfilling life.

On the outside, you may look capable, creative, and like you have it all together. You're making things, holding a lot, showing up for people. But inside, something feels off.
Maybe conflict shuts you down or leaves you flooded. Maybe you feel disconnected from what actually matters, even though your life looks “good” on paper. You might notice yourself withdrawing, "overfunctioning," or feeling overwhelmed by emotions you don’t fully trust yourself to handle. Often, these patterns trace back to earlier experiences that were never fully tended to. If you've been too afraid of your emotional world, you don't have to face this alone.

Creating a life that you truly enjoy can be challenging. Barriers like anxiety, low motivation, unhealed trauma, feeling stuck, low self-worth, a lack of identity, challenging relationships, perfectionism, harmful habits, and more can get in the way of a self-satisfying life that aligns with your true values and desires. Navigating these challenges can feel exhausting, but you don’t have to do it alone. Seeking help opens opportunities for powerful insight, coping skills, and a new way of living.
