Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist(LMFT)based in California. I have been practicing for over 15 years. I help adults struggling with stress and burnout become the best versions of themselves. I have a wide practice and have worked with folks with severe mental health conditions to adjustment disorders. I like to tailor the session to meet your specific issue and work together to come up with a treatment plan.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked in mental health for for the past 15 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I work well with all folks but have a specialty in mood disorders.

I use CBT to help clients combat negative thoughts, thought restructuring and help clients with reframing their narrative.
