Welcome! I am thrilled to connect with you. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California, I bring a wealth of experience and compassion to my practice. With a decade of involvement in the mental health field and five years as a practicing therapist, my journey has been dedicated to understanding and supporting individuals who are navigating questions about themselves, their relationships, and their life experiences. Above all, I believe in the transformative power of therapy to foster resilience and inspire positive change. Every individual's journey is unique, and I am committed to helping you navigate yours with empathy, understanding, and respect. I invite you to take the first step towards greater insight and healing. Together, we can explore the complexities of your experiences, illuminate new perspectives, and embark on a path towards a more fulfilling life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our first session, you and I will get to know each other. I will ask questions to learn about your life, what is bringing you to therapy, and what your therapeutic journey has been like so far. I will provide space for you to express your hopes about therapy, and I will answer all questions you have about myself or my process. By the end of the session, we'll have a good idea if you and I are a good fit.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a provider, my strengths lie in my down-to-earth approach, use of humor, and extensive knowledge in the field. I create a comfortable and empathetic environment where clients feel understood and supported. I strive to be a safe anchor, maintaining confidentiality and trust as we navigate personal growth together. I am dedicated to challenging clients to push beyond their comfort zones and embrace change. By encouraging them to confront obstacles and explore new perspectives, I empower individuals to cultivate resilience and unlock their potential. My ultimate goal is to foster greater self-awareness, facilitate meaningful insights, and support clients in achieving a more fulfilling and balanced life.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Trauma-Focused CBT
I use this modality with clients who are ready to fully process traumatic events and experiences. TF-CBT helps clients remember these events without having to re-live them.
Humanistic
At our core, I believe all people have an innate ability to solve their own problems. A humanistic approach is one that centers you as the client in all parts of therapeutic process.
On average, Optum clients pay $0-$75
