Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles. I received my Masters from the University of Southern California (USC). As a therapist, I am committed to providing a safe and inclusive space where individuals from diverse backgrounds feel heard, valued, and respected. My approach is rooted in cultural competence, recognizing and honoring the unique experiences and perspectives each client brings to the therapeutic relationship.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will start with brief intake questions and it is my intent to provide a safe space for you to share your story of the challenges that you are facing and seeking to address.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I offer a comprehensive approach to mental health and well-being. By listening deeply to each person's unique narrative, I collaboratively develop tailored solutions that honor their strengths and values. I firmly believe in the inherent capacity for change within each individual and work tirelessly to cultivate an environment of trust, empathy, and growth.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I specialize in working with individuals who are experiencing life's road bumps. You want to feel better but struggling to figure out how to adjust and cope. My clients are motivated to learn healthy coping skills and ways to achieve lasting positive outcomes but don't yet have the right tools to navigate life's challenges.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Strength-Based
I focus on the individual's inherent strengths, resources, and positive qualities rather than their weaknesses or problems. My goal is to empower individuals by helping them recognize and build upon their existing skills, resilience, and personal capabilities. This approach fosters a sense of self-efficacy and encourages individuals to tap into their strengths to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. Strength-based therapy emphasizes hope, optimism, and personal growth, helping people to see themselves as capable and resourceful.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT to help individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors in order to foster healthier mental and emotional responses. By focusing on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions, CBT empowers people to manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues more effectively. Its practical, goal-oriented approach equips individuals with skills to cope with life’s challenges, leading to lasting personal growth and improved well-being.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
By cultivating mindfulness, individuals learn to observe their experiences without judgment, which can be particularly helpful for managing anxiety, depression, and chronic pain. This therapeutic approach encourages acceptance and promotes a deeper sense of calm and well-being.
