I aim to have a practice that views mental health and wellness through a social justice lens that is attentive to issues of race, culture, gender identity and spirituality. I believe that we as humans can turn pain into power (I have experienced this myself)! I also believe that when you feel seen, understood, and safe, healing happens. There are not many places where we can come to be, breathe, and experience unconditional acceptance. Therapy is a place where you can show up as yourself, keep i...

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in the state of California. I bring my creativity and intellectual curiosity to a psychodynamic approach to clinical psychology rooted in the tradition of psychoanalysis. My approach as a therapist is honest and direct.

Using evidence-based practices, I strive to support, encourage, educate, and empower my clients. The basis of using a more eclectic...
We live our adult lives with a belief it's not okay to feel certain feelings. This obviously doesn't work. My experience has been that most of us do not learn about emotion when we are young and in fact, likely get punished for displaying emotion. I believe this could put our emotional states "in the closet" so to speak. I like to help my clients learn about intense emotions coming in waves like on an ocean and how to notice body sensations which then escalate into undesired behaviors. Wit...

Many of those I work with feel anxious, overwhelmed, and exhausted—stuck in overthinking, weighed down by self-doubt, or disconnected from themselves and others. On the outside, their lives may reflect what society sees as 'successful'—doing well at work or school, keeping things together—but something feels amiss. They may feel restless, on edge, isolated, and drained by painful relationship patterns, often feeling unseen and emotionally distant. Some cope by shutting down, distancing themselve...
