A warm welcome to my practice. Are you feeling overwhelmed or stuck in life searching for a way to begin your day? Together we will endeavor to provide a non-judgmental space where in therapy we can work to face the difficult challenges life throws at us.
You deserve a trusting relationship grounded in authenticity, compassion, and a deep respect for hardships that can be a foundation of your growth.
My areas of speciality include issues in areas such as trauma, addiction, compulsive behaviors, and relational difficulties for individuals and families. Your therapy utilizes expertise from evidence based practices including Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Therapy; with a holistic approach encompassing the somatic connection between mind and body.
For those seeking to change, transformative change often involves creation of new ways to navigate life. We are both the marble and sculptor in our lives to create change. As a therapist, you are the best expert in your own life and your capability to be the gatekeeper in the relationship; you choose how much or how little to share and when to share, and my goal will be to meet you wherever you are in the therapeutic process towards internal peace.
Connect with me through Psychology Today for a free 30-minute phone consultation, allowing us to explore if we are a good therapeutic match. Currently serving those residing in California via HIPAA-Compliant telehealth services.

Therapy is a collaboration. You are the authority on your own experience and your own goals, and I respect that fact more than an average therapist. I want to know what you want to work on, and help you specifically with that. It takes courage to set on a path of healing and growth; I honor this by offering space to move towards your chosen goals at your own pace.
You are a unique person, and so I do my best to individualize treatment to your values and intentions over preconceived ideas of what “healthy” means.
In addition to my qualifications as a therapist, I have a background in art and performance, and I love to work with artists, writers, animators, editors, directors, and actors to support their creative goals.
I also have years of experience in Somatic Therapy, which addresses the physical symptoms of emotions. Many people experience behaviors or compulsions—usually based on past traumas—that negatively impact their daily lives. Somatic Therapy is a form of healing this trauma in the body. It is especially helpful in decreasing compulsive behaviors, including addiction, and cultivating a sense of safety in one’s body.
