Licensed to practice in California and accepts 7 insurances. Specializes in Anxiety, Depression, Life Transitions and 9 more.
I am a licensed therapist who supports children, adolescents, adults, and families through life’s emotional challenges with compassion and care. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relational or parenting concerns, and I also provide faith-integrated and culturally sensitive therapy when desired. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and a strengths-focused lens that honors each client’s unique experiences, values, and goals. Through our work together, I help clients build insight, develop effective coping skills, and strengthen emotional resilience. My goal is to support you in feeling more grounded, empowered, and confident as you navigate daily stressors and relationships in a safe, nonjudgmental space.
Our first session is focused on getting to know you and understanding what brings you to therapy. We will discuss your concerns, goals, and what you hope to gain from our work together. This session is collaborative and relaxed, allowing us to begin building trust and determining a treatment approach that feels right for you.
What sets my approach apart is my ability to blend evidence-based methods with empathy, cultural sensitivity, and practical support. I focus on creating a safe, supportive environment while helping clients identify strengths and build effective coping strategies. Clients often appreciate my warm, grounded style and my commitment to helping them achieve meaningful progress.
My ideal clients are those seeking a supportive, collaborative space to work through anxiety, depression, trauma, and life challenges. They value growth, are open to reflection, and are ready to take steps toward healing and thriving within. I am best positioned to support adolescents and adults—including clients of color—who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or navigating life transitions, and are looking to build coping skills, gain insight, and experience meaningful, lasting change through a culturally responsive and trauma-informed approach.
