Therapist

I am a compassionate and dedicated therapist committed to supporting individuals in navigating life's challenges and achieving personal growth.

I typically work with individuals who are struggling with Depression, Anxiety, Suicidal Ideation, and Self-Harm, as well as individuals who struggle with the symptoms and behaviors associated with ADHD.

Goal setting is very uniquely tailored to each individual I work with, and I ensure that goals are specific to the needs and desires of the individual.

I became a therapist because I know the importance of feeling like someone is in your corner. What drives me is seeing those I work with succeed and thrive in their environments and amongst the people who matter most.

Therapist

I am a licensed therapist who specializes in anxiety depression and behavioral addictions such as gambling, gaming, shopping, and technology use. I became an LCSW because, quite simply, I love people and have the deepest respect for all living things. I have a masters in Social work and background in Psychology, Sociology and Education. I believe that every individual has innate strengths and my goal is to help you tap into yours. Whether you are in a difficult life transition, navigating healthy relationships, or looking to understand yourself more deeply, I am here to empower you so that you can move from feeling "stuck" to feeling capable.

Outside of the therapy room, I am a proud mom and dedicated reader. As someone who identifies as a lifelong learner, I will bring curiosity and warmth to every session. In addition to my private practice, I am a crisis clinician. This background has sharpened my ability to remain grounded, and provide a safe, stable space even when a situation may feel the most chaotic.

Welcome - I'm so glad you're here. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I offer couples, family and EMDR therapy sessions to support the treatment of relationship issues, life transitions and trauma. After receiving a bachelor's degree in Communication Studies from Chapman University, I went on to complete a master's degree in marital and family therapy at the University of San Diego. Both have equipped me with the education and experience to address all things involving relationships and communication. I am also trained in both Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Attachment Based Family Therapy (ABFT). My clinical experience spans various levels of care and settings (outpatient, residential treatment and private practice) treating trauma, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, family issues, and marital conflict.

Hi, I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who brings a fun-loving, nerdy vibe to the work I do. I love helping individuals and families understand each other better, and I have a special passion for neurodivergent folks—especially my fellow ADHD adventurers. I’m trauma-informed and not afraid to walk with you into the darker, trickier parts of your story so you don’t have to face them alone. My style is flexible, collaborative, and a little eclectic, pulling from EMDR, CBT, ACT, and family-focused approaches to find whatever actually helps you level up in life.

What started as an interest in human behavior and Psychology, blossomed into empathy for the human experience and learning what an incredible privilege it is to hear and witness the vulnerability of others. While obtaining my MA in Marital and Family Therapy, I worked in Community Mental Health, primarily serving low-income families. I have gained a wide range of experiences with many diverse populations. Maintaining cultural competence, and open-mindedness to all is crucial to my identity as a therapist. A safe and supportive environment is the foundation of the therapeutic relationship.
