Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), licensed in California. I received my Master's from California State University, Los Angeles, and have been practicing for 5 years. I help adult women (18-60) struggling with anxiety, life transitions, depression, and overall who want to explore their inner world and go on a healing journey. I have found that women often need support in reconnecting with their bodies, and I am passionate about providing mindfulness-based practices to help women remember and reconnect with the power they possess.

When I meet with my clients, I truly want to understand their issues from the onset to the present. This allows me to trust within the therapeutic relationship and also me to see my clients as whole persons, not a person that is divided into pieces. My approach with my clients is compassionate, strength-based, and supportive. While I also practice other modalities, I enjoy focusing on the ones mentioned to serve my clients better.

My primary job as a therapist is to learn your unique story so that I can understand your views and lived experiences. I believe all behavior makes sense in context, and by working together, we can both gain awarenesses and insights as to why you may be struggling. After uncovering the "why", we will work together to find healing, growth, and more adaptive coping skills. I am a firm believer in the mind-body connection and believe that our lifestyle and environment have a huge impact on our mental health. These beliefs inform my work as a therapist.

Are you a neurodivergent, twice-exceptional (2e), or "autistically-adjacent" person who was raised by—or partnered with—dominating, emotionally immature personalities? Do you suspect your "ADHD" might actually be the chronic hyper-vigilance of CPTSD? If so, you are likely the most analytically capable person in the room. You have analyzed your history to death and can describe the why of your trauma with clinical precision. Yet, despite years of therapy "managing symptoms," the internal patterns remain unchanged. Your mind has solved the puzzle, but your body is still living in survival mode.

It seems like so many of us desperately struggle to understand why we keep repeating the same patterns, especially when we know they are hurting us. And when we are deeply self aware, it makes change feel even more out of reach. Whether it's addictive behaviors, stuck in unhealthy relationships, or being weighed down by past trauma, I believe healing begins when we feel safe enough to honestly engage what’s behind our unwanted actions with compassion, grace, and dignity. My role is to help you slow down and reconnect with what’s been lost in order to take steps toward the real change you’ve longed for.

Psychodynamic Therapists
Is psychodynamic therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found psychodynamic therapy to be effective in treating conditions like social anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain, some personality disorders, and depression; indeed, some studies have found it to be just as effective as CBT or medication. What’s more, several studies have found that the benefits of psychodynamic therapy tend to endure—even grow—long after treatment has ended.

How long does psychodynamic therapy last?
Unlike CBT and other more structured forms of therapy, psychodynamic therapy tends to be open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to three times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. However, brief psychodynamic therapy is available, which tends to be more goal-oriented and typically unfolds over 16 to 30 sessions.

Does psychodynamic therapy work?
Research finds that psychodynamic therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of diagnosable mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. The modality may also offer a range of benefits that are harder to measure but just as valuable—such as increased self-worth or healthier relationships. While no therapy type will work for everyone, research and anecdotal evidence suggest that psychodynamic therapy can be highly effective.

What are the limitations of psychodynamic therapy?
Some meta-analyses have concluded that there is little evidence to suggest that psychodynamic therapy can effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as PTSD, OCD, or psychosis, though it is sometimes used to do so. More broadly, the open-ended, free-association structure of psychodynamic therapy may be frustrating for clients who prefer a more structured, time-limited, or goal-oriented approach.
