My work is grounded in the belief that therapy can be a space of liberation, where you can begin to let go of what no longer serves you, reconnect with your truth, and move toward a life that feels aligned and empowered. I specialize in working with trauma related to relationships, family systems, identity-based harm, or life transitions. Together, we’ll work to understand how these experiences have shaped your sense of self, and begin to restore safety, trust, and connection from the inside out. I offer several ways to connect: virtually across CA, or in-office in Pasadena or Newport Beach, CA.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and curious. I integrate somatic, relational, and systemic lenses, honoring how both inner patterns and external forces shape your story. Therapy with me isn’t about perfection, but about creating space for your whole self to exist, heal, and be witnessed.
Healing takes courage, and seeking support is a powerful first step. In our sessions, you’ll find a space to slow down and explore what matters most without judgment or pressure. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels safe and supportive, exploring the changes you wish to create in your life. I warmly invite you to reach out today for a free consultation.
