I provide a welcoming and safe therapeutic environment, utilizing an integrative approach to therapy. I meet clients where they are ready and help clients through their healing and growth journey. I utilize personal strengths to cope and build connections and awareness together. I incorporate practical skills into each session as well as mindfulness practices to help clients navigate life's past and present challenges. My goal is for clients to create healthy, intentional, and meaningful lives.
I attended the University of California Los Angeles where I studied Psychology and Education. I later went on to obtain my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Southern California. I have years of experience working with adults in both the community mental health setting and in private practice.

My passion is helping adults find meaning, intention, and growth in life.
Outside of work I enjoy practicing yoga and pilates, spending time with friends, and going to the beach for a sunset walk.
I make intentional time to care for myself doing something I genuinely enjoy.
Court Appointment Self Advocates for Children (CASA) - Building connection and feeling supported is crucial for believing in oneself and growing in life. Children in the foster care system often lack a sense of connection with others and the feeling of love and support. Court Appointed Self Advocates for Children provide the child with an adult to build connections and a support system and advocate for the child in court when they are voiceless. CASA helps bridge the gap for children between feeling helpless and alone and feeling supported, loved, and understood.
Yoga and Pilates help balance out my energy and emotions, spending time with family and friends, and sunset walks on the beach.
