As a former oncology nurse, I have built my psychotherapy practice in service of patients with cancer and chronic illness and their caregivers. I understand the grief, trauma, and burnout of medical care and systems. I know the exhaustion of explaining yourself time and again, as well as the loss of control you may feel as a patient. My work with caregivers, professional and family based, is rooted in a strong desire to provide a space for the emotion of your experience to live and breathe. You know that you are more than your disease and bigger than your working role, but maybe this has gotten lost in the demands of disease.

Many people come to therapy when life feels overwhelming—when anxiety, sadness, or old wounds begin to weigh heavily on their sense of self. Individuals may feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve them, unsure how to move forward or reconnect with their inner strength. Couples often arrive feeling distant, caught in conflict, or longing for the closeness they once shared but don’t know how to rebuild. In both cases, there is a deep desire to feel understood, supported, and equipped with new ways of relating. Therapy becomes a safe space to rediscover resilience, nurture connection, and create meaningful change.

“My relationship is like a roller coaster.” Are you drowning in confusion, exhausted from trying to navigate difficult dynamics with your partner?
You may be roller-coaster-bound if you're deeply loyal, empathetic, and optimistic; endlessly patient, forgiving, and self-sacrificing. You focus on the good in people and their potential, rather than the bad. You’re always looking for ways to improve yourself. You work tirelessly to solve relationship problems, even over many years, and you rarely give up. You fear being alone.

I work with individuals and couples in California who are looking to reduce conflict, strengthen relationships, and prepare for pregnancy and postpartum. Many who find me feel both overstimulated and isolated (I see you, parents and teachers). Many are already "doing the work," on their own in some way, but keep falling back into old loops and struggle to feel heard. I'm here to anchor you to right now. We work with what's available today to build resiliency, communicate more effectively, reparent (often while parenting), and feel like yourself again. With consistent support and someone to trust, you can catch your breath.
