Introduction

Choosing therapy is choosing personal healing. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT 109785) in California (pronouns: she/her/hers). Helping You Navigate Life's Most Challenging Moments Life can be unpredictable—and sometimes overwhelming. Whether you're facing anxiety, grieving a loss, going through a major life transition, or struggling in your relationships, you don’t have to do it alone. I provide a warm, supportive space where you can explore what’s happening, gain clarity, and begin to heal. I work with individuals to help them reconnect to their strengths, build healthier relationships, and move forward with greater peace and purpose. My approach is compassionate and collaborative—rooted in evidence-based practices, but always tailored to your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll work to understand what’s beneath the surface of your distress, develop practical tools to manage stress and anxiety, and create lasting change. Whether you're navigating a breakup, loss, career shift, or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
