I am a very empathic and supportive person and can work well with clients because they know I am real, and I will work with them to find a technique that works best for them to achieve their interpersonal goals. I know that people have inner thoughts that they think others will not understand. We will together make sense of them.

I’m an LCSW with extensive training in Brainspotting, EMDR, CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Solution‐Focused work, and other evidence‐based approaches. I bring a warm, empathetic, and often humorous style to therapy, and I view the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative partnership rather than a hierarchy. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered as we work together toward meaningful change.

I integrate somatic/body-based approaches (EMDR, IFS, Brainspotting, Mindfulness) with strength-based and client-centered ones.
Do you feel constrained by the demands of your problem? Is it affecting your relationships, your profession, or your overall satisfaction with life? You hold the power to bring the change you seek. I work collaboratively with individuals, couples, and families on a wide variety of issues, including relationship issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, parenting, ADHD, academic/work-related stress, identity development, acculturation, couple and family dynamics.

IFS, Brainspotting & Wavepaths (Music for non-drug psychedelic therapy) for individual adults in California.
I specialize in helping adults in their 30s and 40s who want to heal their childhood wounds, which are getting in the way of experiencing more secure attachments in their intimate relationships. Growing up witnessing dysfunctional interactions in our family of origin does not equip us with the best tools to have healthy relationships as adults. Relationship distress can be so overwhelming that it can drain our joy, creativity, work productivity, and even our health.

As a dedicated therapist, I believe in creating a therapeutic environment where you feel truly seen and supported. I’m not just here to nod and take notes; I show up fully—authentic, grounded, and invested in your journey. Therapy should be a safe space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment, and where you can challenge yourself to grow.
If you’ve been feeling stuck or if traditional methods haven’t worked for you, it’s not that you’re broken; it’s that you’re ready for something different. Together, we’ll dive deep to uncover the root causes of your challenges and work towards meaningful change.

Are you feeling anxious? Down? Stuck? Frustrated? Not sure what it is but cannot put your finger on it? Perhaps you have experienced a crisis and feel like you are spinning out of control. Or maybe life somehow now feels unmanageable. These feelings can cause an increase in limiting beliefs and negative self-talk, which can also affect your personal and professional relationships. This is not at all unusual, and IS very recoverable. It is my pleasure to help you make sense of it, regain your footing, and help you get back on track.

I believe the most important element in the therapeutic relationship is the connection between therapist and client -- person to person. What I bring to the relationship is warmth, caring, and a gentle and compassionate presence.

Using EMDR (www.emdr.com) and EFT (www.emofree.com) as highly effective tools, I help you to release negative patterns and beliefs and build upon your positive resources and strengths.

Brainspotting is my favorite approach for helping clients process trauma and regulate their nervous system.
Are you grappling with complex trauma or C-PTSD? Have you experienced multiple adverse life events, leading to feelings of anxiety, depression, or disconnection? Do you feel your nervous system is stuck in a freeze state? or suffer from chronic illness/pain? Are you wanting to improve your mental health, heal your trauma, and no longer be held down by the long-lasting and impairing effects of post traumatic-stress?

With Brainspotting you can heal the longstanding wounds logic can't seem to mend
As a parent, you've noticed a change where your adolescent or teen just isn't the way they used to be. Their smile is gone and they're more to themselves, stressed, unmotivated, anxious, sad, or angry and you know something has to change. You know they often feel misunderstood, are quiet, sensitive, don't easily trust adults, or have seen so many therapists they couldn't make progress with and you're not sure they will open up. You need someone to connect with your teen, join their world, and support them in regaining happiness and stability to meet their goal of having a happy, hopeful and successful life.

In today’s world, many of us are navigating growing pressures and increasingly complex circumstances.

I am trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, and enjoy helping clients heal from trauma.
Entering therapy can be difficult and it is very important to find a therapist with whom you connect well. My goal in therapeutic relationship is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment to honor vulnerability required to make changes in one's life. My approach is collaborative. I believe everyone has a unique story and inherent wisdom. I hope to be able to help uncover that and assist with teaching necessary skills to cope and to make changes needed to get desired results.

can all be addressed safely in session using different therapy modalities, including EMDR, Brainspotting, and other, trauma informed therapies.
Therapy to support healing from trauma, anxiety, and life's messiness, that’s grounded, insightful, and occasionally served with a New York accent. Healing from trauma and navigating anxiety or depression can be tough, but it doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time. I bring warmth, insight, and evidence-based methods to help you work through life's challenges, while making space for authenticity, humor and humanity. Clients tell me they appreciate feeling truly seen and supported — and they always laugh a little when my accent sneaks out mid-session. Whether using talk therapy or a trauma informed modality, healing is possible.

Additionally, I offer Brainspotting as a brain+somatic (body-focused) modality to help move you through unresolved parts of trauma.
You are only human. This means needing secure, safe attachments with others in order to thrive. You want freedom from anxiety, depression, or trauma. You’re experiencing conflicts in your most important relationships. These problems often block us from feeling confident or thinking clearly. You may be out of energy trying to these solve issues on your own. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I support individuals and relationships through solution-focused and strengths-based approaches.
