When parents are overwhelmed, anxious, or frequently arguing with their teen, having concrete strategies and someone who truly understands the landscape can make all the difference. My background includes years working with adolescents as a 7th-grade teacher and also a court-appointed youth advocate. I understand the unique pressures facing youth and am experienced in building the trust necessary to bypass typical adolescent resistance. By addressing anxiety at its root, I help middle school and high school teens understand their emotions, build resilience and confidence, and support families in communicating effectively together.
I help you understand patterns that may contribute to feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, towards greater clarity and alignment. With evidence-based care like CBT, EMDR, ACT, mindfulness, and somatic therapy, we’ll explore how thoughts, behaviors, and nervous system responses interact while building practical tools for relief and self-awareness.
With adults, my primary area of focus is on chronic, unresolved stress that transforms into professional burnout or severe insomnia. As a Certified UC Berkeley Sleep Therapist, I can actively work with you to rewire your sleep patterns and tackle the trauma or stress keeping you awake.
