I am a California-licensed therapist with 15 years of experience supporting clients with stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ issues, self-esteem, motivation, and depression. As a published author of mindfulness and meditation planners and coloring books on Amazon, I bring a compassionate, respectful, and personalized approach to therapy. Together, we’ll create a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I’m proud of you for starting this journey!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we'll introduce ourselves, identify your biggest challenge, and explore your life and current coping strategies. Together, we'll create a plan to address the issue and build new strategies, refining them in follow-up sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

With experience in community clinics, schools, and universities, I’ve crafted a dynamic framework that integrates diverse strategies, activities, and interventions to help clients navigate anxiety, ADHD, depression, communication, and relationship challenges.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I’m passionate about empowering adults to tackle life’s challenges, from executive dysfunction to communication struggles and managing stress and anxiety.

My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

I utilize ACT with clients who struggle to accept that their struggle with understanding and processing their feelings might be helping them respond appropriately in certain situations, i.e. listening to a gut feeling or intuition.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have used CBT for over a decade to help clients manage their anxiety and depression, reduce intrusive thoughts, and create inner peace.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

I have been using MBT practices with clients for the last five years to reduce anxiety and improve executive functioning, making clients calmer and more productive throughout their day.
