Therapy style

I believe strongly in understanding the connection between our physical and mental health. With extensive experience in both mental health and wellness, I bring a unique and balanced approach to clinical work. I provide evidence-based psychotherapy that is values-driven, mindful of our individuality and culture, and emphasizes the importance of physical health and lifestyle as a cornerstone of treatment. I often incorporate methods from a variety of theoretical orientations.

Interests

I enjoy most being outdoors and exploring the never-ending adventure the Bay Area provides. I was a collegiate swimmer and later transitioned into marathons and triathlons, so physical activity is my medicine!
