Who I Am: In my nursing career of over 25 years I have undergone extensive training in the specialized fields of neurology and psychiatry, which eventually led me to my true passion of becoming a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). Throughout my career, I’ve been deeply interested in the brain and its complexity. My path into mental health was shaped by a lifetime of witnessing the impact of mental illness on those around me. Helping others grow, improve their well-being, and experience a better quality of life has always been a central passion of mine, and it continues to guide the work I do today.

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.

I am a senior psychotherapist with more than 25 years of experience. Before becoming a therapist, I practiced law and accounting, experiences that gave me a broad understanding of the real-life challenges people face in their relationships, careers, and personal lives.
I bring this practical experience together with my psychological training to offer an integrated, thoughtful approach to therapy. I work to understand each client as a whole person—their history, relationships, current circumstances, strengths, and the challenges that brought them to therapy. My goal is to provide a supportive, experienced perspective while helping clients develop greater insight and make meaningful changes in their lives.
