About

I am a psychologist licensed in California with over 15 years of experience working with emerging adults and the adult population. I have provided services to clients who present with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, adjustment issues and identity development. I also have expertise and shared lived experience working with the LGBTQIA+ community.

My counseling style is affirming, warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, dignity, sensitivity, and compassion. My therapeutic approach is integrative in nature combining cognitive-behavioral therapy, humanistic approaches, acceptance and commitment therapy, and narrative therapy. I look forward to working collaboratively with you and will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek help and to take the first steps towards a change to move towards a more fulfilling life. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
