With nearly 20 years of experience as a holistic psychotherapist, I specialize in helping clients overcome perfectionism, anxiety, and complex trauma. My goal is to support you in healing past wounds, managing stress effectively, getting unstuck or building stability, and fostering self-discovery so you can feel whole, empowered, and capable of creating a fulfilling life. I also work with interracial and interfaith couples to navigate challenges related to cultural differences, communication, and values. My approach is holistic, compassionate and collaborative, tailored to your unique needs.
With an eclectic practice, I integrate somatic, holistic, psychodynamic, relational, EMDR, and gestalt approaches to support healing and growth. As an EMDRIA-certified EMDR therapist, I also specialize in attachment-focused EMDR (AF-EMDR), helping clients process trauma and build stronger emotional connections.
Let’s connect so you can begin your journey toward healing and growth. I am licensed in California and Oregon, offering weekday video sessions and Saturday in-person appointments. My clients often discover greater freedom, choice, and empowerment in their lives. Reaching out is the first step—I’m here to support you every step of the way.
