I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist, which is a type of psychological professional, and a licensed counselor in the state of California. As a therapist and often called a counselor, I focus on relationships, emotional well-being, and mental health challenges. I also specialize in treating issues like trauma, anxiety, depression, and more—with an approach rooted in empathy, authenticity, and collaboration.
Therapy can be a helpful tool for anyone facing challenges like major life transitions, relationship struggles, or mental health concerns. Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, or just feeling stuck and overwhelmed, therapy offers support, coping strategies, and a safe space to reconnect with yourself.
I offer a range of evidence based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Trauma-Informed Therapy, and Solution-Focused Couples Therapy. I also integrate mindfulness, attachment-based work, and LGBTQIA-affirmative therapy. For relationship work, I draw from Gottman Method (Level 1 & 2) and PACT (Level 1). My experience also includes supporting clients through grief and complex emotional transitions. Together, we’ll choose a style of therapy that supports your unique needs, promotes your mental health, and strengthens your overall well-being.
I provide compassionate, client-centered therapy to support those struggling with substance abuse, addiction, or related patterns. Whether you're exploring harm reduction strategies or looking for support alongside 12-step or AA-style programs, we’ll work together to find what fits best. Together, we can explore underlying issues, develop healthier coping skills, and build a support system to help you move toward recovery. I also work with clients who are in long-term recovery and seeking ongoing emotional or mental health support.
Yes—I’ve had the honor of working with the trans and gender-diverse community for over a decade. I provide gender-affirming therapy that supports individuals who are transgender, non-binary, gender expansive, anywhere on the gender continuum, or exploring their gender identity, whether or not that’s the primary reason for seeking therapy.
My practice is LGBTQIA-affirmative and inclusive, offering a space where you don’t have to explain or defend who you are. Gender-affirming care is shown to reduce distress, improve mental health, and support deeper self-acceptance. You deserve therapy that sees and affirms all of you.
