Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Costa Mesa, CA

Welcome! I am currently accepting client and I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ adolescents and young adults, providing affirming care through a solution‐focused and client‐centered approach. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, supporting effective and meaningful change. I also incorporate Narrative Therapy and Trauma‐Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address trauma and promote healing when appropriate.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially when you are navigating the challenges you are facing. Many of my clients come to therapy wanting a space where they feel safe, accepted, and truly understood. I strive to provide this so we can work collaboratively to move toward greater clarity, resilience, and well‐being.

Hello, and welcome. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges while building resilience, confidence, and meaningful change. I earned my Master of Social Work from Arizona State University and have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families across a variety of settings.

My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, stress management, life transitions, self-esteem, relationship challenges, burnout, and trauma. I also have experience supporting foster, adoptive, and kinship families, as well as individuals navigating parenting and caregiving responsibilities.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California with 25 years of experience using my clinical skills in a corporate setting — and now I'm coming back to what drew me to this field in the first place: working with people one-on-one. I offer telehealth sessions, so we can meet from wherever you're most comfortable. I work with individuals and couples navigating life transitions, career shifts, relationship stress, and the kind of quiet drift that happens when you've been running hard for a long time.
