I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, depression and relationship challenges. If you're seeking more short-term coping, we can explore the patterns shaping your experiences to support lasting, meaningful change. My approach is trauma-informed and attachment focused - always guided by your goals. Therapy is a warm, collaborative space where we process experiences, strengthen communication, and build more secure, fulfilling relationships.
My style is warm and compassionate. I am on this journey with you as we build a therapeutic relationship which includes giving feedback and validation. I offer CBT as well as more focused DBT work. I was trained at UCLA in their DBT program and often include DBT into our work together.
I would love to be a part of your journey. We become psychologists in order to create change but also to provide empathetic care and support to many people. This is always my goal.

I use a very personal approach which makes people feel at ease discussing difficult topics. Im not the type of therapist that nods and doesn't say anything. With me you get someone who listens as well as directs and provides healthy feedback.
