I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working in community mental health, co-occurring substance use treatment, and residential care settings. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use challenges, mood disorders, relationship stress, and major life transitions.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected and supported without judgement. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I draw from CBT, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based approaches to help clients build insight, emotional stability, and healthier coping strategies.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a Master’s degree in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling and over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals, families, and couples across a wide range of settings, including dual diagnosis programs, residential treatment centers, county behavioral health clinics, and law-enforcement–affiliated crisis response teams.

My work alongside multiple police departments, providing crisis intervention in high-stress and high-risk situations, has shaped my ability to remain grounded, compassionate, and effective even during life’s most overwhelming moments. I bring that same calm and steady presence into the therapy room.

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Orange County, California, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, relationship issues, substance abuse/addiction, and trauma.

My communication style is calm, accommodating, and reassuring. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking with me about anything, and I pride myself on my ability to listen without judgment.

I decided to become a therapist because I have always wanted to help people. Whether it was as an epidemiologist working with the physically ill, mentoring high school students in relational and life decisions, or being a loyal friend, I have always naturally been drawn to helping people through difficult times. Now, as a therapist, I get to enjoy seeing people realize their full potential, heal from their pain, and identify and begin working toward a new future of hope for themselves.
