Piedmont, CA - Accepting clients in CA
My therapy framework is inspired by Black feminist sci-fi writer Octavia E. Butler who inspired my belief that healing helps us imagine and build worlds beyond the forces that dominate, dehumanize, and disconnect. The tools I use to support the exploration of individual, interpersonal, and intergenerational trauma are shaped by abolition that rejects punitive and scarcity mindsets and disability justice which strives to value every body.
I draw from a number of therapeutic approaches that gently uncover without judgment deeply embedded coping strategies that were once necessary for survival but may no longer align with your current sense of self, desire for connection, and movements towards what makes you feel seen and heard. These practices also nurture emotional regulation and self-acceptance, deepen awareness of relational patterns and help you find meaning through creative expression and personal grounding practices such as art, music, time in nature, being with animal children and more that feel truly attuned to who you're becoming.
Together, they help us tend to both the immediate and deeper layers of your experience—supporting clarity, connection, and a more compassionate relationship with yourself and others.

As a mental health therapist, I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating life’s challenges and seeking meaningful change. I have a special interest in supporting adolescents exploring their identity and sense of self, as well as adults facing stress, transitions, or uncertainty about their path forward. In my work with couples, I help partners create a foundation of trust, mutual respect, and healthy communication. Whether you're feeling stuck, disconnected, or misunderstood, my goal is to help you rebuild clarity and connection—both within yourself and your relationships.

This is YOUR JOURNEY and YOU DESERVE specialized support …Are you having trouble functioning in your environment while experiencing unproductive thoughts/feelings/actions? Are your emotions working against you; controlling you, keeping you from experiencing the relationships and the life that you want for yourself? Are you trapped inside your mental health diagnosis? So many mental health challenges are rooted in past events and in fears of the future. How would you feel if past events didn't have a hold on your thoughts/feelings/actions in a negative way? How would it feel to be in charge of your responses to thoughts and feelings?
I work with folks experiencing mild to moderate mental health challenges. My approach to therapy is individualized to you, as I utilize interventions from multiple theoretical orientations to fit your desired outcomes. I provide an emotionally safe space for sharing your truth. Let me sit beside you as you journey to yourself.
I graduated from CSU, Sacramento with my Master of Social Work and from UC, Davis with my Bachelor's in Psychology.

I am a psychotherapist who has experience working with adults, couples, children and families. My professional background includes work in social service agencies in both clinical and community roles, as well as in private group practice. I approach my work with admiration and sensitivity to the vulnerability that individuals bring to the therapeutic process. I view therapy as an opportunity for personal growth. It is my privilege to offer guidance in this process.
I work with clients who are experiencing a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, family/relationship issues, and life transitions. My therapeutic approach is eclectic, drawing from an array of techniques including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Psychodynamic Theory, and Child Parent Psychotherapy.
In my practice, I use a strengths-based, individualized approach to create a safe and supportive therapeutic environment for clients that is warm, collaborative, and empathic. I strive to empower individuals to make sound choices in order to help them live balanced, connected, and meaningful lives.
