You may be carrying grief, facing a major life transition, or struggling with depression or anxiety that feels overwhelming and isolating. You deserve a space to hold the heaviness, soften the pain, and welcome moments of hope and meaning back into your life. In our work together, we focus on what’s most meaningful to you to help you reconnect with yourself and create room for hope, healing, and relief.

I support teens, adults, and families facing loss, life transitions, and other challenging seasons. My own journey with loss deepens the care and compassion I bring to therapy. I understand how important it is to feel truly seen in your pain. Together, we’ll honor your pain while supporting healing, clarity, and a sense of comfort moving forward.

If you’re feeling isolated or unsure of where to start, you don’t have to figure it all out alone. I’d be honored to walk alongside you to hold space for your pain and support you as you find connection, meaning, and hope. We can meet in person in Newport Beach or online from anywhere in California. Reach out today, and let's take that first step together.
