I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I love spending time outside, with those that I care about, and reading. These are all ways that I ground myself as a human who is also growing and navigating the world we live in. As a clinician, truly getting to know my clients is important to me. I feel that treatment is more impactful if you feel safe enough to be yourself. My intention is to meet you where you are, and then we go from there together. My practice is rooted in a client-centered trauma-informed approach that emphasizes safety, trust, and empowerment.

It can be overwhelming to deal with the difficulties in daily life especially when we often discount some of our own struggles. My clients experience many of the same issues you feel: anxiety, depression, breakups, divorce, parenting, lack of motivation, and setting boundaries in important life relationships. Whether this is your first time in therapy or not, you deserve a therapist who is going to validate your feelings but also offer you solutions. I have over a decade of experience as a therapist and yet I still treat every client as a unique individual who deserves a unique approach.

I am a couples therapist in California helping partners work through conflict, communication breakdowns, and disconnection, including how ADHD, anxiety, attachment wounds, and emotional stress show up in relationships. I work with couples who feel stuck in painful communication patterns where one partner shuts down, avoids conflict, or becomes overwhelmed while the other pushes harder for connection, answers, or reassurance. Many of the couples I work with love each other deeply but feel exhausted by repeated arguments, defensiveness, emotional disconnection, resentment, or feeling more like roommates than partners.

Therapy can be a grounding space where you feel seen, heard, and supported as you navigate life's challenges.

I work with children, teens, and adults who are ready to better understand themselves, build confidence, strengthen relationships, and create lasting emotional change.

On the outside, you might look like you're doing well. You juggle work, responsibilities, and people in your life. But internally, you might be feeling anxious, burned out, overthinking, struggling with the same relationship issues over and over again.
Therapy is a place to slow down and figure out what’s going on. Together, we look at your patterns (how you think, react, and feel) and identify what’s helping and what’s getting in your way. Then we can get to work on practical changes so you feel more clear, intentional, and in control of your life.
