Welcome! Do you feel like you're trying so hard all the time but not getting the results that you want? Are you in a relationship where you feel misunderstood & frustrated? Are you a parent feeling overloaded & exhausted? Or are you sick of feeling overwhelmed & anxious? With over 15 years of experience supporting individuals & couples, I know that we all have the ability to heal & grow but sometimes we need skillful help to make it happen. I specialize in couples counseling, parenting support, & anxiety relief. If you are struggling & ready for change, let's work together to create the life you want.
My style is warm, engaged & deeply compassionate. I'm a licensed UCLA grad & something unique to me is that I combine IFS with the Gottman Method-which is a deep, highly transformative experience—ideal for those ready to make meaningful change in their lives. My approach is trauma informed & results focused. We go at your pace & respect your innate wisdom.
Beginning therapy can feel daunting, but connecting with someone that you feel comfortable with and truly understood by can make all the difference. If you'd like to see if I might be the right therapist for you, reach out for a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. I typically respond the same day to messages & look forward to speaking with you!
