I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Southern California who graduated with my Masters in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. Since 2014 I've worked with active-duty military which inspired me to go back to school in 2017 for Sport and Performance Psychology. Since then I have pursued working with high performers and high-risk occupations. I have a passion for working with those ready to process trauma, understand how to regulate their nervous system and reach optimal performance. Going through my own challenges as an athlete with an injury, I developed a love for helping those with injury recovery or who are struggling with a chronic illness or chronic pain.

I am privileged to join you on your journey in therapy. Many of us struggle daily with issues like anxiety, stress, depression, anger or just feeling misunderstood. We may feel stuck and ashamed at our inability to just will ourselves into being "better.” My aim is to make a space for you to feel empowered to process and create the change you hope to see in your life. I have experience working with adolescents and adults with depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma, substance use, and other personal challenges. I have a warm and caring approach with my clients, and I value personal preferences in the therapy experience.

I APOLOGIZE THAT MY AVAILABILITY IS LIMITED DUE TO MY EMDR TEACHING & RESEARCH COMMITMENTS.
Hi, I am an EMDRIA EMDR Certified Therapist and trauma consultant who graduated from the University of Southern California, with years of culturally diverse trauma-focused therapy experience since 2011.
I received my trauma training at the National Center for PTSD and the EMDR Trauma Recovery Humanitarian Assistance Program.
I am specialized in providing EMDR therapy for highly successful expat, AAPI Veterans & professionals (e.g. Journalists, Corporate Leaders, Producers, Actors, Scientists) who experience a Medical Related Trauma, Fear of Flying, Stage Fright, Phobia, Unprocessed Grief, witnessed or experienced a Critical Incident, War Trauma and Cultural Issues.
In our society, we overlook the necessity of trauma work for our highly successful leaders. Many of my clients come to me are specifically looking for EMDR therapy to resolve barriers so they can be a better leader and find a better work-life balance. Others come to me for EMDR therapy after they tried talk therapy for years and didn’t see the progress they hope for.
