LCSW, 1 years of experience
Hi there! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California. I received my Masters from the University of Southern California. Life can feel pretty heavy sometimes. Whether you're stuck in your own thoughts, overwhelmed, feeling disconnected, or just not quite yourself lately and are unsure of where to turn is more common than you might think—and you don’t have to face it alone. I specialize in supporting individuals who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, depression, self-worth struggles, and all the messy in-betweens, using a compassionate, down-to-earth, supportive approach that meets you where you are. If you're looking for a space to sort things out and feel more like you again, I’m here to provide a safe space when you’re ready.
In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and discuss what brought you to therapy. We will discuss your background, your goals, what you’re hoping to work on, and any challenges you’re facing. Therapy is a process. Therefore, there’s no need to worry about having everything figured out—this session is about building a foundation for our work together, and I’ll guide you through each step. It’s perfectly normal to feel a little nervous, but my goal is to make you feel comfortable and supported as we start this process.
I show up to therapy with curiosity, compassion, and a deep respect for your story. I became interested in becoming a therapist once I developed a deep curiosity about how people think, feel, and connect one another. Early on, I became passionate about supporting people through their struggles and helping them sing strength through life's hardest challenges. Over the years, I have worked with individuals and families who have experienced a wide range of trauma and I have seen how powerful it is when someone feels understood, and supported in a genuine way. I am honored to be part of a journey that helps others find their strength and resilience
I enjoy working with young adults, adults, and teens who may sometimes be feeling stuck in your own thoughts, overwhelmed, feeling disconnected, or just not quite yourself lately.
I use CBT to help you get more in tune with your thoughts, feelings, and emotions so you can better understand what's going on
