Focus Area: Marriage And Family Therapist
Licensed in: California
With a rich background in organizational leadership, program development, and counseling supervision, I bring a wealth of experience to my practice.
About Me
I have honed my skills in diverse settings, from managing youth programs to serving as a civilian counselor for the U.S. Military and directing clinical operations in psychiatric hospitals and residential treatment facilities. Over the past decade, I have also dedicated myself to private practice, working closely with individuals, couples, and families. Central to my approach is the belief that trust is the cornerstone of effective therapy, and I am committed to fostering a strong therapeutic connection with each client. I use evidence-based therapy models like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to guide clients through treatment with tailored interventions to achieve their therapy goals. I am dedicated to earning your trust and supporting you on your journey towards growth and healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Headlight accept insurance?
Yes, Headlight accepts most major insurances such as Aetna, Kaiser, Magellan, Anthem and more. To confirm we accept your insurance, please call 800-930-0803.
What is the difference between a Therapist and a Prescriber?
Therapy, often provided by psychologists, social workers, or counselors, involves talking through emotional and psychological challenges to gain insight and develop coping strategies. Whereas, psychiatry, typically led by medical doctors, focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues using medication alongside therapy when necessary. While therapy emphasizes conversation and behavioral strategies, psychiatry integrates medication management to address biochemical imbalances in mental health conditions.
How much will my appointment cost?
Seeking help is hard, paying for it shouldn’t be. Our goal is to make mental health care affordable and accessible to all, by working with insurance companies to cover mental health services in-network. Over 90% of our clients are getting great care with only a co-pay fee.

Do Headlight providers offer telehealth visits?
Absolutely, all our providers offer telehealth visits so that you can get care from the comfort of your own home.
Can I see both a Therapist and Prescriber?
Yes. Seeing both a Therapist and Prescriber is incredibly common and can lead to better results. Talk with your provider and discuss if combining Therapy and Medication Management makes sense for you.
What can I expect in my first appointment?
During your first session you will meet with a licensed professional to discuss your medical history, current feelings and relevant life factors. From there, you and your provider will work together to create a personalized treatment plan. If you don’t feel like your provider is a good fit, please let your provider know. They can help transfer you to a new provider that might be a better fit for you.
