My Therapy Style

Helping you see past where you are, to get you where you want to be is my role as your therapist. I understand that a person's well-being can change over time depending on their circumstances.

Get to Know Me

What are your interests outside of work?

When I’m not working you can find me hiking or walking along a trail or the beach. I am a trained dancer and still enjoy taking classes so these days I’m into Tango and Salsa. I also enjoy exploring new places, finding antiques, and reading a good book.

What book have you read more than once?

The book that always has my attention is: Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking The Stress Cycle by Emily and Amelia Nagoski.

Favorite organization/non-profit?

One of my favorite organizations is the YWCA, specifically the one located in Glendale/Pasadena, California. The mission is to eliminate racism and empower women and they have a long history of action behind that mission.

How do you recharge?

I recharge best by spending time outdoors, being quiet and reflective or spending time in the dance studio. Those are my happy places.
