Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California. I received my Masters from the University of Southern California and have been practicing for 9 years. I help adults and elderly who experience relationship difficulties, trauma, anxious and depressive symptoms as well as career stress improve the quality of their lives. I mostly use EMDR, CBT and DBT in my practice.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

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

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Having worked with adults and elderly for the past 9 years, I find it important to help clients identify the root cause of their challenges and create a plan with goals that lead to progress.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to trauma, anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I help clients process traumatic memories and heal from distressing life experiences. I teach clients tools that will help them manage their symptoms needed to reach their goals and improve their functioning. I also help clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them.
