Hi! I'm so glad you're here. Welcome to my profile. Many of the clients I've worked with have experienced a sense of feeling stuck in some area of their life whether it's in their relationships with themselves or with others. They desire for their life to look different, but are at a loss of how to create the change they're longing for and only end up feeling anxious, depressed, or attempting to fill the void or distract from the feelings of overwhelm that a different way of life is possible.

I offer virtual or in-person sessions and a free 15-min consult.
You don’t have to white-knuckle your way through eating disorder recovery. I specialize in supporting young adults navigating eating disorders, anxiety, body image struggles, and the messy transitions into adulthood- college, careers, relationships, identity, or faith. Therapy with me is collaborative, honest, and trauma informed. I strive to show up with warmth, curiosity...and occasional humor. Together, we’ll unpack the behaviors and beliefs keeping you stuck- food restriction, hating your body, over exercising, perfectionism, people pleasing- and move toward grounded, sustainable change.

I offer therapy online throughout CA and in-person in Walnut Creek.
You’re the one everyone relies on, but inside, you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or like something from the past still holds you back. Maybe you’re navigating motherhood, identity shifts, or trauma you’ve carried for years. You want to feel more grounded, emotionally present, and in control. My clients often come to therapy knowing they want change but not sure where to begin, and that’s where we start, together. With advanced training in EMDR, perinatal mental health (PMH-C), and CBT, I help women feel more like themselves again—calm, capable, and connected.

Psychologist, PhD
Walnut Creek, CA 94597
I specialize in helping people through life transitions of all kinds- from work/career to family and personal. Change is a part of life, and it can be disruptive, unsettling, and challenging. It can also be an opportunity for creativity and evaluation of our lives. I help people assess where they are now, where they want to go, and how to get there. Trained as a high level violinist, I have a particular passion for helping musicians and athletes through transitions related to their sport or instrument- things like dealing with injuries, or making decisions about whether to pursue athletics or music at the next higher level.

I provide in-person sessions out of Walnut Creek and Livermore.
I work with first responders, military veterans, men, young adults, teens, couples, and families who seek strength, clarity, and stability in the most important areas of life. I serve those facing operational stress, trauma exposure, identity conflict, leadership strain, and the burden of carrying others while neglecting themselves. I also guide adolescents stepping into adulthood and couple facing relationship distress. In this work, struggle is not weakness but the training ground where virtue, discipline, resilience, and steady peace are formed through deliberate effort and honest self-examination.
