I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based out of Castro Valley, CA and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adolescents and adults and specialize in treating depression, anxiety, grief, stress and life transitions. I utilize Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Mindfulness to help my clients make progress and find joy in their lives.
My approach to therapy is individualized based upon the needs of my clients. Overall, I bring empathy, compassion and a bit of humor to each session. The therapeutic relationship is built upon the understanding that the process is collaborative and goal oriented.
I have found my style and approach to work well with both the adolescent (12-17) and adult (18+) populations who are struggling with mood disorders, anxiety, grief, trauma, and overall life challenges. No matter the age, my goal is to help clients build their capacity for change and create a pathway to wellness.
