Warm

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Southern California. I received my master's in social work (MSW) from the University of Southern California (USC) and have been practicing for over 15 years. I help adults struggling with life transitions and stress to improve their quality of life. Some of my personal strengths include empathy, kindness and a good sense of humor. My work experience has also led me to clinically supervise new therapists in the field.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked many years in this field, I know how important it is to identify triggers, create manageable treatment goals, and continually check in about our work together.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with adults that are motivated to see change. Some of my clients need help learning coping skills, restructuring negative thought patterns, and learning behavioral activation techniques to improve their depression and anxiety symptoms.
