I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist providing virtual psychotherapy to adults, adolescents, children, families, and couples residing in California. I have a passion for connecting with, supporting, and understanding others. I provide a safe space for my clients’ healing, growth, and evolution. I have completed EMDR Basic Training and Gottman Method Couples Therapy Level 1 Training.
My approach is collaborative and direct yet gentle, with a tailored treatment plan and goals to work toward measurable progress. Some of the areas that I address include anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, relationships, life transitions, and women's perinatal mental health.
I have an eclectic, culturally sensitive, trauma-focused, person-centered, empathetic, compassionate, and holistic therapeutic approach. I utilize modalities such as CBT, psychodynamic, mindfulness, internal family systems, strength-based, IFS, somatic, EFT, EMDR, Gottman, the mind-body connection, and more.
