I don't know what brings you, but I know that it can take a lot of courage to reach out for support. Therapy is a powerful statement to yourself that you, your relationship and your family matters. The heart of my work revolves around assisting you in the journey of your choosing. Often I am supporting people who are interested in uncovering and unlearning painful negative beliefs about themselves. So often we have internalized a harmful message early in life -I'm bad. I'm not good enough. My needs don't matter. Together we can process the events that led to those beliefs and find the self-love and compassion to heal.

My work is my passion and I consider it a privilege to provide mental health support to my clients. Through my experiences working at UCLA, Caltech, Fuller and Pepperdine universities, I have gained a rich understanding of emerging adulthood and life transitions. I offer individual and group therapy (telehealth/in-person) through my private practice in Pasadena, CA.

I enjoy working with people who have experienced life, in it's fullest, but sometimes need a little extra help. I see my clients as the experts in their own journey to resolve what life throws at us; I'm here to truly listen and gently guide. I have experience working with issues like trauma & abuse, depression & anxiety, relationship issues, addiction, personality disorders, family/parenting conflicts, intimacy issues, and/or grief & loss, Military/Veteran issues, & many more. I am completely open to understanding what you need and really look forward to working with you on a solution; you are not alone in this process.

Stepfamilies & Blended Families are the fastest growing families in the United States! With your blended family comes many opportunities to grow and learn about each other, but also may come with high-conflict former relationships/divorce(s), co-parenting issues, and other trials. I am here to help with the unique blending that occurs pre-marriage, post-marriage, and certainly when families are not blending so easily. I want your family to not only survive, but thrive!

I value helping to foster a secure space and use an integrative approach to help clients feel empowered to reach their personal goals. Intersectionality has been paramount on my own personal healing journey and I have had the opportunity to work with clients who benefit from the same lens.

Are you feeling lost? Or maybe out of control, burned out, stuck, or like an imposter? Are you or your loved ones repeating behaviors, relationships, or situations, and wishing you could break the cycle? Maybe little things feel more stressful than usual. Sometimes, we aren't sure what causes our distress, but we can sense we're not reaching our potential for health, happiness, or success. Even when we know the cause, change can still feel impossible. That's where I come in. My job is not to judge you; it's to listen, help you understand the root causes of your difficulties, and teach you practical tools to help change your life.

In practice over 20 years, I continue to facilitate and support the fulfillment of desired changes in the clients I serve, while enjoying the process personally. I remain committed to the full exploration and integration of each client's unique personality characteristics. In working with individuals and couples, as well as children and adolescents and their families, I have great appreciation for the importance of addressing developmental milestones across the lifespan.Whether adolescent identity or women's role conflicts,the client's understanding of both developmental challenges and cultural context is central to lasting positive therapy outcomes.

My goal as a psychologist is to help you realize your best possible self. I focus on helping people build skills and capabilities in order to live happy, meaningful and successful lives. In our fast paced, productivity obsessed culture, it's easy to get off track and one day wake up to realize you're not living the life you wanted. There are so many forces at work on us, including systemic oppressions and their effects (fear, anger, perfectionism, self-judgement, imposter syndrome, etc). Therapy can be a bolster and a support - a means to explore values and goals, reconnect with your best self and create the life you want.

The decision to begin therapy is a courageous one. You may be coming to therapy because of a variety of reasons such as emotional distress, relationship issues, challenging life transitions, or feeling alone in navigating personal struggles. I believe the most important element of effective psychotherapy is the genuine relationship between the patient and therapist. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can feel free to express your thoughts and feelings. Our goal together will be to work toward alleviating the stress, struggle or pain you may be going through.

You feel stuck but need more than just “talk” or a “safe space.” You’ve had great supportive talk therapy, but felt that you ultimately didn’t receive the tangible skills needed to address ANXIETY or OCD. I hope to provide clear insight and actionable steps to spark real change inside and outside the therapy room if intrusive worries or repetitive behaviors are overwhelming you - or if Anxiety is taking up time and energy from your life – or if sleepless nights are disrupting your days.
