Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California. I received my Master’s in Clinical Social Work from the University of Southern California. I also have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Cal State University Northridge.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy is both a luxury and a necessity. Therapy saved my life, and I'm honored to be able to offer that same grounded, compassionate space to others. I provide warm, non-judgmental, trauma-informed care to couples, families, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My style is relational, intuitive, and gently direct — creating a space where you can feel safe, understood, and meaningfully supported.
