I specialize in working with couples and individuals who are looking for deeper, more intentional relationships - with themselves and with others. Together, we explore how culture, emotional patterns, attachment dynamics, and past experiences shape how you show up in connection. My approach is warm, collaborative, and insight-oriented. I bring powerful emotional attunement to you, as well as levity and humanness to the therapeutic relationship, while effectively helping you build practical tools for communication, emotional regulation, and repair. I also support adolescents navigating anxiety, self-esteem, and peer/family dynamics.
My work integrates attachment-based, Emotions Focused Therapy, somatic, solution focused, and narrative approaches. This means we don’t just talk about your experiences—we also pay attention, draw deep awareness, and make shifts to what’s happening in your body, your emotions, and your story. This approach creates a goal of sustainable, lasting change.
Whether you’re learning how to regulate overwhelming feelings, communicate more openly in your relationship, or understand patterns rooted in earlier experiences, our work together is reflective and practical. I offer in-person sessions in San Diego, as well as virtual and walk and talk/nature based sessions.

I take a culturally attuned approach to therapy, integrating emotional, cognitive, and body-based modalities to meet your unique story and needs. You are unique; rarely is the process one size fits all! I often draw from narrative and somatic practices to support healing through both mind and body, helping you reframe patterns and reconnect with your inner sense of self.
