About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in California with over 10 years experience working in hospitals. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, homelessness, spirituality, and life transition/changes. My therapy style is client-centered. I believe in treating anyone with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution-focus, motivational interviewing, and spirituality. I will formulate our dialog and treatment plan to meet your needs and goals. Choosing a therapist is a pivotal decision in one’s life and something I don’t take lightly. If you decide to choose me, we can work together to improve your mental health for the better. Looking forward to meet you!
