My expertise is in child and adolescent anxiety reduction, OCD, autism and ADHD. My goal is to provide education to kids and their parents about anxiety and related and co-occurring conditions. I also frequently treat phobias, separation anxiety, emotion regulation issues, school refusal, learning disabilities, trauma, giftedness and 2e.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working in school-based and community mental health settings, supporting children, teens, young adults, adults, and families through a wide range of emotional and relational challenges.

I specialize in working with anxiety, self-esteem struggles, emotional regulation, life transitions, relationship stress, and school-related challenges. My experience working closely with youth and families has deeply shaped the way I understand emotional development, family dynamics, and the importance of feeling seen, supported, and connected.

Clients often describe me as warm, approachable, engaging, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy should feel human, collaborative, and supportive — not cold or overly clinical. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are while feeling safe enough to grow, heal, and better understand yourself.

Hello there! I am an LMFT, I studied at Mount St. Mary's, and graduated 2017. I have worked with children and families, couples, and individuals, and enjoy creating a safe space to work together to find a more peaceful and happy version of yourself!

Hello, and welcome. I am a licensed psychologist with over three years of experience providing psychological services across a variety of settings, including outpatient care, correctional institutions, inpatient treatment, and first responder programs. My diverse clinical background has allowed me to work with individuals facing a wide range of challenges and life circumstances.

I earned both my Master's and Doctoral degrees in Psychology from Loma Linda University. During my doctoral internship, I trained in a Level IV state prison, where I provided treatment to individuals with serious mental illness and worked extensively with concerns including trauma, depression, anxiety, suicidality, adjustment difficulties, and emotional distress.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and understood. I utilize evidence-based approaches to help individuals develop insight, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, or simply seeking personal growth, I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward greater well-being.

I know how heavy life can feel when you’re carrying pain, uncertainty, or self-doubt. But I believe, as a wise old wizard once said, “Happiness can be found even in the darkest of places, if one only remembers to turn on the light.” My role is to help you find that light again. I work with Gen Z and Millennial adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and more. Through integrative, culturally responsive care, I combine evidence-based psychiatry with holistic strategies to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered to create a life that aligns with your true self.
