I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a master’s degree from Cal State Los Angeles. My work draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing—but more than any technique, I’m guided by curiosity, honesty, and care. I specialize in helping clients untangle who they’ve had to be from who they truly are. In our work, you can expect a steady presence, thoughtful collaboration, and a deeper sense of being seen—not just as a set of symptoms, but as a whole person.
My Clients
You might look like you have it all together, but inside, it’s a different story—waves of self-doubt, flashes of painful memories, or a quiet sadness that won’t go away. Maybe you’ve spent years pushing through, trying to keep control, but now it’s catching up to you. You're tired, and it’s starting to feel like something has to give. I work with adults who carry the emotional weight of trauma, depression, and identity struggles—often in silence—and are ready to finally look inward, not just get by. Together, we make space for what’s been buried, and start loosening the grip of old patterns so you can feel more at home in yourself.
