Do you ever feel disconnected from yourself or the people around you? If you struggle prioritizing your own needs and feel a sense of hopelessness, I’m here to help. I’m a dedicated licensed psychologist committed to serve. Many of my clients are seeking more than just symptom relief—they want lasting positive change. I support people through life transitions, balancing career and personal life, relationships, and exploring identity. Your unique story can be your superpower. Together we make a one-size-fits-one approach. The purpose of our sessions is to make your goals a reality and find your best path forward.

With a person-centered focus, I work collaboratively with you to explore your unique life experiences. I believe everyone has the potential to grow and reach their goals. I’m competent in a variety of evidence-based thearpies such as ACT, CBT, and solution-focused therapy. I help you manage distressing symptoms and improve your personal relationships.

Growing up, I was always drawn to helping others. That passion continues to inspire my work today. I offer a warm, encouraging space for people of all identities, including LGBTQ+, multiracial, and immigrant clients. Together, let’s explore your future to help you live a fuller, more authentic life. Get in touch if you feel we may be a good fit!

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT)
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Person-Centered

I focus on providing evidence-based treatments, which are gold-standard therapies that have the strongest research support. Treatment will typically involve procedures such as processing stressors or painful life events, learning to think in more helpful ways, creating new patterns of behavior, obtaining new skills for regulating intense emotions, and assisting you to live a more purposeful life.
