I earned my MSW from the University of Southern California in 2021, and my passion for mental health work has only deepened since then. I work with teens and adults (ages 12 and up) who are navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, and the often-complicated layers beneath them. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing—not as a one-size-fits-all plan, but as tools we can use together to meet your needs and goals. In session, I show up with curiosity, care, and respect for your lived experience. You don’t have to go through this alone.
My Clients
You’re holding it together for everyone else, but inside, it’s hard to keep up. Maybe you feel stuck in cycles of worry or self-doubt, or you're carrying weight from past experiences that won’t seem to let go. You want things to change—you want to feel more present, more in control, and more like yourself—but you’re not sure where to start. Therapy is a space where we can slow things down, look at what’s really going on beneath the surface, and find new ways of relating to your thoughts, your emotions, and your story.
