I work with individuals, couples, and families seeking meaningful change in their lives. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by stress, navigating relationship difficulties, or striving to find balance between personal and professional responsibilities. I view psychotherapy as a collaborative process that unfolds in a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space. My role is to provide practical tools, insight, and encouragement as you build emotional resilience, resolve internal and interpersonal conflicts, and move toward greater well-being.

Whether you're questioning your sexual or gender identity or have been out for years, a therapist who understands you is key to successful therapy. We learn about ourselves through relationships and sometimes what we learned in the past isn’t helpful for us in the present. Trauma, abuse, neglect and microaggressions can teach us that we don’t deserve to have the career, relationships, sexual intimacy, or life that we want. This happens all too often with queer & trans people, especially BIPOC. Without conscious awareness, these lessons may cause us to sabotage ourselves or our relationships, but it’s never too late to unlearn them!

Los Angeles, CA 90036
There are countless stories and expectations we’re given about who we should be—more successful, more actualized, richer, thinner, endlessly capable. With so much noise around us, it can be difficult to hear our own voice that knows what we value, what brings us alive, and what deserves our energy and care. Many people I work with feel weighed down not only by depression, or easily named trauma, but also by quieter, less visible forms of harm—such as emotional neglect, chronic pressure to perform, or invalidation within families or institutions. These experiences can leave our voice lost or neglected.

You’ve spent so long holding everything together that you barely notice the strain anymore — until something finally feels too heavy. Maybe you’re exhausted from being the responsible one, the peacekeeper, or the person who never asks for help. Maybe old patterns from childhood are showing up in your relationships, your self‑worth, or the way you cope with stress.

I specialize in delivering evidence-based, or science backed, therapy to children, adolescents, and adults who struggle with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and emotion regulation. I also work with parents to help them understand and support their child’s emotions and behaviors. I've worked with clients from a range of diverse backgrounds and believe that each person is the expert on their own experience, so I tailor every treatment plan to meet the specific needs of each client. My favorite part of therapy is empowering the clients I work with to recognize their unique strengths and build the lives they would most like to lead.

I work with women and teens who feel anxious, emotionally disconnected, or overwhelmed, even when life looks “fine” on the outside. Many of my clients have learned to push through, stay strong, or put others first, often without realizing how past experiences or difficult relationships are shaping their present. Using a trauma-informed approach, therapy becomes a space to gently explore what’s happening beneath the surface, reconnect with emotions and the body, and build a sense of safety and self-trust.

Something’s changed. That change can be any number of things - recent baby, newly out of or into middle school/high school, change in family dynamics, or others. But something has changed and it doesn’t feel right. You used to feel like you had it together - like you were writing your own story and happy with where it was going. But lately, it doesn’t feel that way. Lately, it feels like there’s an editor changing things in your story and it’s not working out! You feel lost, maybe depressed, anxious or angry, or maybe you’re not sure what you feel, just that something’s not right.
