I work with individuals navigating life and career transitions, stressed college students, those exploring LGBT and gender identity issues, creative writers and artists, and successful professionals overwhelmed by busy lives. Each person’s journey into therapy is a unique act of courage. As a California-licensed marriage and family therapist since 2004, I’ve been privileged to help countless people. I’ve seen how anyone can cultivate serenity amidst uncertainty with the right psychological tools. By intentionally aligning thoughts and behaviors, we heal old wounds, find peace, and move toward our dreams.
I view modern psychotherapy as a sacred art that is grounded in the ancient healing and storytelling traditions found throughout the world. Being with another person as they bloom into the full authenticity of who they truly are is one of the great joys of my life. I’d be honored to accompany you on your own unique therapy journey.
I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth. For my availability, please reach out to Octave’s team by emailing or calling.
