I am a relational therapist, and I most often pull from the following theoretical frameworks: EMDR, parts work, mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, DBT, and CBT.
I’ve had the honor of helping folks manage depression and anxiety, navigate change, explore their identity, cope with daily stress, discover healthy boundaries, process grief and trauma, build self-esteem, manage anger, improve relationships, and find more joy, balance, and meaning in their lives. Together we can explore your story, foster helpful insights, and build skills that help you cultivate well being and self compassion.

Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy ( DBT), and other evidence-based modalities to address challenges including anxiety, depression, substance misuse, interpersonal relationships, and life transitions, it is my deeply held belief that everyone deserves a space where they feel heard and understood.
My primary work is with adults who are navigating life transitions, experiencing interpersonal relationship challenges, struggling with their children, or feeling stuck in damaging patterns. These experiences can often lead to symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, grief, or substance misuse.

Life changes, depression, and anxiety can be overwhelming—leaving you emotionally drained and unsure of how to move forward. I’ve been working in mental health since earning my MSW from San Jose State University in 2004, inspired by my experience supporting family members through their own health and mental health challenges. That foundation continues to guide my work today, helping clients navigate difficult emotions and adjust to life’s transitions with greater clarity and strength.

I use a variety of approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy skill-building, and mind-body awareness to help you meet your goals.
I want to help you open up new ways of thinking, feeling, behaving and experiencing life. I use an informal, collaborative approach. We set goals around what you'd like your life to look like. Then we lay down stepping stones to get you there, such as challenging self-limiting beliefs, building skills like inducing relaxation at will, or communicating such that people will actually listen to you.

Additionally, I integrate elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy ( DBT), EMDR (for treating trauma), Solution Focused Therapy, and the Gottman Method (for couples).
My goal is to build strong therapeutic relationships with my clients, grounded in empathy and trust. I am committed to learning each of my client's unique and diverse life stories. My clients rely on me to help "unpack" not only the issues that brought them to therapy, but to better understand how their upbringing, family, and life experiences impact their mental wellbeing. I work with adults, couples, families and adolescents (age 16 and up), who are experiencing depression, anxiety and stress, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, maternal mental health, and relationship conflicts.

My priority first and foremost is to build trust in the client-therapist relationship. It can be challenging to share painful thoughts and emotions with others, so I believe it is a privilege whenever I am allowed into someone’s internal world. I take a holistic and collaborative approach to therapy, working with clients to address life transitions, family or relationship issues, overwhelming emotions, and self-harm. Having worked extensively with ethnically- and gender- diverse populations, I especially enjoy helping young adults explore their sense of identity and find meaningful roles in their communities.
