I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 15 years experience. I trained in Somatic Psychology at John F. Kennedy University. I have also trained at the Sensorimotor Institute for Trauma Treatment. I am a grief Counselor. I have a certificate in Nutritional Psychology. I work with adult individuals. My work integrates evidence based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I work with Anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions and relationships. I work to help clients build resilience, a safe environment, boundaries and meaningful connections.
My approach to therapy is rooted in being person-centered, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you with curiosity, empathy, and respect. I strive to create a welcoming and open space where you can show up exactly as you are — without fear of criticism or shame. I meet clients where they are, honoring their pace, experiences, and readiness for change. Whether you’re navigating trauma, life transitions, identity exploration, anxiety, or other concerns, my goal is to provide steady support, practical tools, and a safe environment to help you move toward healing and growth.
You’re the caretaker or the high achiever—the one who always finds a way to make things work. On the outside, it may look like you’re doing everything “right,” but inside you feel anxious, disconnected, or simply exhausted. If you’re wondering how much longer you can keep it all together, you’re not alone. Finding a steady, supportive therapist can be the first step toward feeling like yourself again.
As a Licensed MFT, I work with women and men who are struggling with burnout, perfectionism, anxiety and depression. Many of my clients feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, people pleasing, or putting others first.
Together, we look at what’s working in your life and what may be keeping you feeling overwhelmed or drained. From there, we create realistic goals that help you build confidence, set healthy boundaries, and bring more peace back into your daily routine. Clients can expect through the process to create stronger boundaries, improve mood, and increase clarity with themselves and the way they see the world.
I am licensed in both CA & TX, and love to see clients remotely for virtual sessions. In addition to my clinical experience, I also have a background in world religious studies, have a passion for all things creative, and love seeing clients from various cultural backgrounds, LGBTQ+, college students, working moms, and young professionals.
Whether you are starting therapy for the first time, returning, or looking for a better fit, all are welcome.
