New clients continue care with this provider

I am a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 8 years of experience helping adolescents and adults manage and foster positive change through the lens of psychology. Driven by a genuine desire to make a difference, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate the complexities of their lives, fostering growth, resilience, and meaningful connections. I hold a master's degree in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy and Health Psychology from Santa Clara University.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions before diving into the specific challenges you may be facing. This will help us create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. As a person-centered therapist who integrates evidenced-based modalities to address clients' distress, allowing clients to set their own goals is by far the most important factor dictating clients' success.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 8 years of experience, I bring deep empathy and understanding to every session. In my journey as a therapist I have had the privilege of working with individuals across all life stages—youth, adults, and the elderly—guiding them through life transitions, relationship challenges, and mental conditions. My diverse experience in community settings has enriched my ability to connect with clients from all walks of life, ensuring that I offer a compassionate, personalized approach that meets each person where they are. I am committed to providing a safe and supportive space for healing, growth, and self-discovery. *Payment Policy for Couples Therapy:* At this time, I do not accept insurance for couples therapy. Private-pay and direct payment options are available. Please, feel free to contact me directly to discuss any financial concerns - (925) 452-7668

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My passion lies in the dynamics of helping adults, couples, and the elderly navigate life transitions, cope with loss and grief, and overcome trauma along with the ongoing challenges that life brings. I am also interested in fostering a safe and non-judgmental environment where clients can sort out their thoughts when faced with making the most important decisions of their life; whether in their career, their romantic relationships, or just in life as a whole. Payment Policy for Couples Therapy: At this time, I do not accept insurance for couples therapy. Private-pay and direct payment options are available. Please, feel free to contact me directly to discuss any financial concerns. Payment Policy for Individual Private-Pay Sessions: Accessing therapy can be challenging, so I offer limited sliding scale fees for students in psych/social work programs & individuals with financial needs. If you think you qualify, please reach out to discuss your specific situation. Slots are limited & fees are adjusted on a case-by-case basis.
