I work with people who feel caught between who they've been and who they're becoming. Many of my clients are navigating trauma, identity shifts, major life transitions, or a longing to feel more connected to themselves and the people around them. Often, they arrive feeling overwhelmed by change, weighed down by old roles or patterns, and uncertain about what comes next.
My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, explore what you're carrying, and begin moving toward a life that feels more authentic, grounded, and aligned with who you are.
I am a licensed clinical social worker who is certified in EMDR, Perinatal Mental Health, and Brainspotting. I am also a certified advanced provider of Compassionate Bereavement Care through the MISS Foundation.
I come from a trauma informed lens and specialize in assisting adults navigating persistent emotional overwhelm in their daily lives. My goal is to guide you away from feeling immobilized and without direction, to empowering you to discover meaning, purpose, and fulfillment.
I’m an immigrant, a wife, a mother to a neurodivergent child, and neurodivergent myself. My lived experiences, including divorce, high-conflict co-parenting, navigating special education, interracial relationships, and cross-cultural communication, shape how I understand and support clients through complex, real-life challenges.
I am an independent licensed therapist who offers a warm, inviting, and safe environment to process emotions. I have a master's degree in Master's of Science: Mental Health Counseling, I work with individuals who experience trauma, anxiety, and depression.
My approach to care integrates psychotherapy with medication management. I provide therapy for patients whose psychiatric medications I also manage, allowing for a coordinated and personalized treatment plan that supports both emotional and medical aspects of mental health.
With over 20 years of experience as a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner and now as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I am deeply committed to delivering compassionate, comprehensive care tailored to each individual’s unique needs.

Sleep is one of the most vital components of both mental and physical well-being. I’m passionate about helping people improve their sleep quality through evidence-based, personalized care. I provide in-depth diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of sleep disorders, with a special focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)—the gold standard, non-medication approach to treating chronic insomnia. Whether you're struggling to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling refreshed, I’m here to help you reclaim restful, restorative sleep.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Glendale, AZ
Searching for therapists in Glendale starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or trauma. As you compare therapists in Glendale, AZ, look for training, specialties, and therapy approaches that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you see whether they offer approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care.
Glendale offers a balanced mix of local and nearby care options, from Westgate and Arrowhead to surrounding Phoenix-area neighborhoods. Some people prefer an in-person office close to home, work, or school, while others choose virtual sessions for more scheduling flexibility. To narrow your search, check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, has appointment times that fit your calendar, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what a first session may include.
Therapy in Glendale can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you compare therapists who take insurance, review detailed profiles, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs based on your plan. You can browse therapists in Glendale, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
