About me

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. I hold a Master's degree from Alliant International University and boast over a decade of professional experience. Throughout my 11 years in practice, I have specialized in providing comprehensive support to adults spanning various age groups, addressing a wide spectrum of mental health conditions. I feel like the impact I have on clients is to help empower clients in defining meaningful and achievable goals that align with their personal growth and well-being, fostering a sense of ownership and motivation throughout their therapeutic journey

Get to know me

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

In our first session, I adopt an informal and relaxed communication style during sessions with my clients, reflecting the same approach I utilize in my interactions with individuals across diverse contexts. This consistent manner of communication is rooted in my commitment to authenticity, as I believe that altering my approach would compromise the genuine rapport essential to the therapeutic process

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I believe that one of my greatest strengths and one of the driving forces behind my commitment to this profession is the firm belief that individuals need not face life's difficulties alone. I am dedicated to providing support and guidance, with the overarching message that no one has to endure life's trials alone. My aspiration is to facilitate positive transformations and empower individuals to overcome obstacles. I also believe my rapport with clients to be one of the greatest strengths that I have as a prover.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love providing therapy for individuals experiencing a range of mental health challenges, including but not limited to Anxiety, Depression, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Borderline Personality Disorder, and Bipolar Disorder. I maintain a comprehensive and inclusive approach to therapy, accommodating various mental health conditions and concerns.
