You're a bright, capable woman, but anxiety, stress, and trauma from your past weigh heavily on you. On the tough days it feels like an uphill battle against your own thoughts. Your constant efforts to please others often leave you neglecting your own health and well-being. You desperately want to drop the mask and be yourself, but you're terrified that others will reject you if they truly know you. Part of you worries that you'll be held back by anxiety and your past forever, while another part of you believes that relief and a better life are possible. You know that something needs to change, but you're not sure where to start.

As human beings, we are meant to seek connection with others. Connection with a compassionate, caring, and knowledgeable therapist is one of the best ways to develop a more secure sense of attachment to the world around you. This connection can lead to the positive, long-term change you are seeking.

Life is more enjoyable when we are feeling whole, healthy and connected to the important people around us. But sometimes our reality is disconnection, frustration, stress, and hopelessness. How can this be happening to me? Especially now! Most of us assume the journey to parenthood will be smooth and easy, rarely is that the reality. I support individuals and couples from the early stages of trying to conceive through the stress of launching adults and all the stages in the middle. My role is to be a coach as you try new strategies, process difficult feelings and work through challenges. You do not have to do this alone.

The gift of therapy is priceless and highly transformative. I am walking proof of the impact and have lived through tremendous challenges related to grief & loss, high conflict relationships, health related battles, career challenges and changes, intergenerational trauma, raising young adults and lived experiences in different parts of the country. My therapeutic journey was led by a skilled therapist and through that learning an inherent calling to help others arose. Today, I work with clients in California and am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR,) Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR,) and Reiki.

I see adults, teens, and kids as young as 3yo.
When life gets complicated you may need a safe, confidential space to figure things out with an experienced, nonjudgmental expert you trust. I've had a successful practice for over 25 yrs. Because each client and situation is unique, I've learned what it takes to help clients thrive. Using goal-oriented psychotherapy, I offer a prescriptive combination of strategies based on preference. By gaining insight into emotional and behavioral responses and applying best-fit coping skills, my clients get the relief they need to not just move through the challenges, but beyond them.
