Fostering a climate of emotional safety and trust is paramount. When a person feels safe being vulnerable, they can begin the work of healing and change.

I strive to provide evidence-based treatment, while also meeting my clients where they are and treating them as the expert of their experience. My style can be described as warm and laid-back. It is my goal to get to know each person I work with deeply so I can tailor treatment to fit their individual needs. I tend to utilize CBT and/or DBT strategies in most sessions.

My ideal client faces anxiety, depression, or trauma, seeking not just to survive but to thrive. They may be in high-powered roles, dealing with leadership pressures, or from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, navigating systemic challenges. I work with clients from diverse cultural, ethnic, and racial backgrounds, including BIPOC individuals. They seek to better understand themselves, break free from limiting patterns, and find balance in their personal or professional lives, all while pursuing deeper meaning and fulfillment.

It can be a relief to know that the aspects of ourselves that challenge our patience and understanding were once helpful to us; and like many aspects of life, can change and adapt. I am a firm believer that our struggles can, and often are trying to tell us something that deserves our attention and understanding. Therapy can transform our experience of ourselves and of the world we live in; from rigidity to vital resilience in a world that is full of opportunity. A good fit is important, so call for a consultation and we can take it from there.

I believe that healing happens "at the speed of trust," in relationship, and beyond the binaries of good versus bad or broken versus healed. I believe that the healing container is something we make together. I believe good therapy is a space where you can start where you are (as the world’s expert of your own lived and felt experience); where you can notice and honor what your body is already doing to heal and protect itself; and where you can exist beyond stifling binaries and norms in unfolding relationship to your body, yourself, your people, and your world.

I believe that we all have deep sources of wisdom and healing within ourselves; my goal as your therapist is to help you access those resources within yourself in order to build the life that feels most true for you. I know how difficult it can be to locate barriers to growth- or even to know what kind of growth we're looking for. I feel passionate about meeting you right where you are on your healing journey. I am trained in somatic therapy, expressive art therapy, and drama therapy and believe these are powerful avenues to both locate what change we want to see in our lives and to begin cultivating that change.

Your life might look good on the outside but internally you feel anxious, depressed, lonely or lost. You may have focused so much on achieving external goals that you haven't had time to address your spiraling thoughts, difficult situations from the past, confusing emotions, or understanding your actions. Together we would address the issues that have been difficult to navigate on your own such as challenging relationships, family dynamics or the relationship to yourself and to life. Over time my clients have experienced change, often leading to more fulfilling relationships, increased self-awareness and satisfaction with life.

I specialize in helping adults overcome anxiety and depression. As a Certified EMDR Therapist, I focus on helping clients recover from the effects of trauma. I also enjoy working with couples to develop effective communication skills and reduce destructive conflict. I strive to provide clients with a warm, secure environment in which they feel safe to explore painful experiences from the past that need healing. My approach combines the perspective of long-term psychodynamic psychotherapy with more practical cognitive-behavioral methods, as well as using the latest research from neuroscience about how our minds develop and change.

If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, feeling stuck, burnt-out, or giving more than you are getting in your relationships, these are signs telling you it's time for a change. I work with individuals and couples that want to shift patterns such as co-dependency, self-criticism, boundary issues, and difficulty in intimate relationships. I also work with people who want to learn more about themselves through understanding their childhood family dynamics and trauma. I am trained in EMDR therapy (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), a highly effective tool for coping with and healing trauma.

I work from a trauma-informed, relational space of deep listening, in an open, accepting, and non-shaming manner—welcoming of all that you bring to our session. I believe that each human being is perfectly imperfect. I hold a deep curiosity for my clients’ inner worlds and an ability to hold space for difficult material without shame or judgment, seeing the patterns my clients’ stories, beliefs, and feelings weave and sharing those insights and reflections in our process. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, I work with adolescents, young adults, and their families, and see adults individually and in group settings.

Healing is not a straight path—it is a river, winding and deep, carving new landscapes within you as it moves. As a licensed Psy.D. Clinical Psychologist, I see therapy as a space where we step together into the current of transformation, not just to mend what is broken, but to awaken what longs to be fully alive. Your inner world is vast—an ecosystem of memories, emotions, and untapped creative forces. Together, we explore the patterns that shape you, the stories that have kept you bound, and the luminous possibilities waiting beyond. Therapy is not just a process of understanding but of becoming—an unfolding, an expansion.
