If you're feeling stuck in anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, or addiction/substance use, you can regain control and start moving forward. I help adults and couples throughout California build healthier relationships, manage stress more effectively, and break recurring patterns. My approach is practical, direct, and collaborative—focused on real change, not endless processing. I have 19 years experience helping adults and couples as both a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Certified Addiction Counselor. I'm available online throughout California. Reach out for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a fit.
A lot of people reach therapy exhausted from trying to hold everything together alone. Therapy with me is active, collaborative, and focused on change. I work well with clients who are thoughtful, self-aware, and ready to stop repeating painful patterns. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to figure it out alone.
I know firsthand how difficult it can be to reach out for therapy. I’ve participated in both individual and couples counseling myself, and I understand the vulnerability it takes to sit across from someone new and talk about what matters most. My goal is to make therapy feel like a place where you can be honest, supported, and respected from the first time.
