Licensed to practice in California and accepts 36 insurances. Specializes in ADHD, Anxiety, Mood Disorders and 3 more.
Seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I strive to create a warm, supportive space where you feel heard. I specialize in helping individuals facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and past trauma. My goal is to help you develop insight, resilience, and confidence in navigating lifeâs challenges. Whether you're dealing with stress, life transitions, or healing from past wounds, Iâm here to support you with a compassionate and client-centered approach. At this time, I do not provide couples or family therapy.
Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other, explore what brought you to therapy, and start building a plan for progress. Weâll discuss your current challenges, how ADHD, anxiety, or self-esteem impact your life, and what you hope to gain from therapy. Iâll ask some questions to understand your mental health history, coping strategies, and strengths, so we can identify whatâs already working and where youâd like support. Together, weâll set clear, realistic goals and begin exploring strategies that fit your needs. By the end of the session, youâll have a better understanding of how therapy will help you and the next steps to take.
With my entire career dedicated to the mental health field, I bring a deep understanding of the challenges people face and the practical, real-world tools that can help. My experience spans acute psychiatric settings, crisis intervention, case management, and outpatient therapy, giving me a well-rounded perspective on both immediate and long-term mental health needs. I have a strong foundation in helping individuals navigate ADHD, anxiety, and self-esteem challenges, and my background in case management means Iâm skilled at connecting clients with the right resources and support systems. My time in crisis services has given me the ability to stay calm under pressure, help clients regain stability, and develop strategies for long-term success. What makes me unique is my ability to blend clinical expertise with a compassionate, goal-oriented approach. I understand not only the emotional side of therapy but also the practical steps needed for change, whether thatâs improving daily habits, overcoming self-doubt, or making progress toward career and educational goals. My approach is both empathetic and action-focused, helping clients feel supported while also seeing real, meaningful progress in their lives.
I love working with individuals who are navigating ADHD, anxiety, and self-esteem challenges while striving for success in their personal and professional lives. My clients are motivated to make positive changes but often feel overwhelmed by daily responsibilities, struggle with consistency, or find it difficult to build habits that stick. Many of my clients are highly introspective and eager to understand themselves better, yet they sometimes feel stuck in cycles of self-doubt or procrastination. They want to improve time management, emotional regulation, and coping skills, but they havenât yet found the right strategies to make lasting progress. If youâre looking for practical tools, goal-setting strategies, and a supportive space to build confidence, Iâm here to help. Together, weâll focus on establishing habits that work for you, strengthening self-esteem, and reducing anxiety, so you can move forward with clarity and success.

Gini has been helping me through a spousal separation with gentle insight and warmth. She is an excellent listener, offers words of encouragement, positive things to remember throughout the week, and permission to move forward and live an authentic and happy life. I look forward to her weekly insights as she holds my tender experiences and self-doubt and coaches me through a deep transformation.
