I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Berkeley, California. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, relationship patterns, and the lingering effects of difficult or painful experiences. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, high-functioning, and insightful, yet still find themselves stuck in patterns that feel hard to shift alone.
My background includes training in EMDR, somatic and attachment-focused therapy, parts work, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from The Wright Institute. I also bring a mindfulness and body-based perspective to therapy through years of yoga and meditation practice.
My style is warm, collaborative, and depth-oriented while still practical and grounded. I especially enjoy working with complex trauma, highly self-aware clients, neurodivergent clients, and people who want therapy that goes beyond coping skills alone.
My educational background consists of earning my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Master's in clinical counseling, and a Master's in Addictions. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselr (LPCC #16395) and am a certified addictions counselor. My areas of concentration include grief and significant trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, addictions, and a sub-concentration in eating disorders.
Frequently asked questions


Find an expert who truly understands OCD
Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Modesto
Finding the right OCD therapist in Modesto starts with understanding the type of care that fits your situation. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is typically addressed through specialized approaches like exposure and response prevention (ERP) or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Some people also work with a psychiatrist for medication management alongside therapy. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LMFT, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has direct experience with OCD rather than a general mental health background.
Modesto and the surrounding Central Valley area, including Ceres, Turlock, and Manteca, have a growing number of mental health providers, but finding one who is accepting new patients, matches your schedule, and takes your insurance can still be time-consuming. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach to OCD and whether they feel like a good match. Many providers also offer virtual sessions, which can expand your options beyond your immediate area.
OCD therapy in Modesto can be expensive without insurance coverage. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an OCD specialist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
