Hello, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist based in Southern California. I received my MA in Marital and Family Therapy at Alliant International University, and I have been practicing therapy for the past four and a half years. The primary topics I work on with my clients are grief, anxiety, trauma, and depression. And, I use Compassion Based, Faith Based, and Narrative therapy to guide my clients toward healing.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions, then talk about what is on your mind for therapy and current challenges you are facing. From there, we can build a roadmap for what to expect for the rest of our session and beyond.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My approach is collaborative and compassionate. I believe in creating space for healing, understanding, and helpful meaning-making to happen.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I enjoy serving and building relationships with clients of all ages and backgrounds. I have had the great opportunity to work with teenagers, and young and older adults.

Compassion Focused
I have been using compassion focused therapy in my practice for the past four years. My practice revolves around an attitude of compassion and understanding. In our sessions, the goal is to get you to a place of understanding yourself, the world around you, and discover the possibilities of that.
