Are you wanting to feel better once and for all? Maybe you can't move on from the past or you're worried about your future. If anxiety, panic, or even depression is stealing your joy, I get it. If traditional talk therapy hasn't helped you feel better, it's time to try a new approach to heal at the source of your pain. For 12 years I have refined my approach through professional training and experience in Relational-gestalt therapy and Brainspotting (derived from EMDR) while centering social justice and trauma-informed care.

I specialize in critical therapeutic services for adults. I provide strength-based, collaborative & non-diagnostic psychotherapy which focuses on cultivating resilience & insight. The cornerstone of my practice was built on exploring embedded issues of loss & shame that impact identity and are exacerbated by race, class, gender, learning differences & socio/cultural conditions. I work with people of all ages, backgrounds, orientations & ethnicities. My practice was refined through my work serving persons harmed through the provisions of systems: educational, criminal justice, foster-care and/or military systems.

As a transnationally raised, queer, immigrant clinician and an east coast transplant to California, I understand what it's like to be a newcomer, an outsider, and someone struggling "between worlds." I enjoy working with people who have an experience of not quite fitting in, not quite finding their ground, or belonging - and with seekers and questioners of all kinds interested in getting in touch with their values, owning their authenticity, and healing attachment in relationships. I do this through exploring the stories we tell ourselves, identifying how they shape our sense of power, selfhood, and connection to the world.

Are you ready to take a big step to move through deep-rooted issues? Do you feel frustrated that things aren't changing quickly enough in your life? If you’ve tried traditional or talk therapy without satisfaction, you may be ready to try something new that targets the core of your issues! Perhaps you’re working with a difficult relationship issue, a significant life transition or career challenges. If you have a history of anxiety, depression, childhood trauma or adult trauma, it can be hard to make changes on your own, but healing is possible and I'd love to support you!

In my career I have had the privilege of working with children, teens, adults, parents, couples and families, supporting them in their growth process. Therapy is sought out for a variety of reasons. For some of us, life circumstances have impacted us in such a way that effect how we interact with the world and those around us. Life is created by the situations we encounter, and the quality of our lives often depends on the quality of our relationships. Therapy provides an intentional space to explore our relationships with others, ourselves, and the dance that takes place between the layers and intersections of these dynamics.
