Hi, I'm a Licensed Therapist (LMFT) based in California. I have been practicing for over 10 years and have completed many trainings since graduating from my Masters Program (see below). Through years of experience and studying, I find that most peoples challenges are rooted in their early experiences of the first few years of life, when the foundations of our personalities are formed. Therefore my focus of work is Relational Developmental Trauma.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will focus on getting to know each other and to what what brings you to therapy.

Virtual & in-personMy treatment methods
Trauma Informed Care
I pay attention to how past trauma may be impacting my clients with their current symptoms. We focus on healing Relational Developmental Trauma (RDT), which is trauma that happens within the first years of life. I also monitor for traumatic nervous system activation in therapy session and how that impacts the client's treatment.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindful practice comes from Eastern religious traditions and can be practiced in that context, but in psychotherapy, we employ mindfulness to facilitate for the curious exploration of the unconscious processes. With the guidance of the therapist, mindfulness allows client to make discoveries about themselves that they would not be able to make otherwise. Mindfulness allows us to interrupt the habitual reactions and see what is happening and see other possibilities of how to respond in the moment. What we are aware of, gives us choice, and choice ultimately brings freedom.
Somatic
I find that or bodies are the access point for the subconscious material of our psyche, and that our bodies is where the deep healing and change happens. It is the place in the here and now, where or habitual patterns can be observed and directly experienced, rather than merely being talked about. Bodily experience is also deeply rooted in the precognitive, nonverbal, and the implicit realms of memory, and sheds light on how we learned to respond to the world as we got to know it early in life.
Experiential Therapy
Our primary mode of therapy is experiential. This means that we invite our clients to experience their obstacles less from a theoretical perspective, but more from in-the-moment experiences. We build the psychotherapeutic process around the art of evoking and examining the experiences that shed the light on the person's habitual ways of thinking and behaving, and their origins.
Relational
Therapeutic relationship is the vehicle for healing. I use relational therapy modality that fully immerses the client in a new experience of a healthy, authentic, real, loving relationship with the therapist in the here and now. This enables clients to experience a healthy relationship with themselves, and the world. We focus on healing Relational Developmental Trauma (RDT), which is trauma that happens within the first years of life, within the child-parent relationship. Because RDT happens in relationship, healing RDT also happens within the client-therapist relationship.
