• Empowering individuals and families to break generational cycles, heal from complex trauma, and confidently navigate life's toughest transitions.

I am a Bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California. My career is dedicated to supporting individuals navigating life’s most vulnerable, chaotic moments with a deeply grounded, non-judgmental, and trauma-informed approach.

My background spans crisis intervention, community leadership, and family advocacy. I have specialized experience with youth and young adults, including aged-out foster youth, justice-involved young adults, and teens navigating severe crisis, self-harm, or substance use. I also specialize in family reunification and breaking generational cycles of abuse, having worked closely with child welfare and served as an international speaker on child abuse prevention and women's empowerment for DIF in Tijuana, Mexico. Additionally, I provide individual and group therapy for court-mandated domestic violence offenders, addressing accountability and toxic masculinity.

Whether you are a young adult rewriting your future, a parent fighting for your family's healing, or an individual ready to break old cycles, I provide a compassionate, safe, and culturally responsive space to guide you forward. Sana tus heridas en tu propio idioma.

I have a strong track record of working with parents, building relationships and connecting with youth who are reluctant or nervous about therapy. I have a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and Masters in Education and Childhood Development. I've worked as a therapist in Jr. High and High School settings and currently work in private clinic to heal family relationships. I give you the tools to be kinder to yourself and step back into your life refreshed and empowered.

I grew up in a small town in Hawaii, then came to Southern California and began studying psychology in 2001. I completed my master’s degree at Fuller School of Psychology in 2010 and served children and families at a community mental health agency for 10 years, also starting a private practice in 2015. While I loved island life, I’ve put down roots here through friendships, involvement in my community, and my love of LA’s cultural diversity.

My patients can expect me to be warm, empathetic, and genuinely interested in their story. I take time to understand not just current struggles, but also personal history and experiences that have shaped who they are. I believe that mental health is deeply connected to overall health, and treating psychiatric conditions can positively impact all areas of life. I work with all patients and conditions, and I always meet people where they are. If someone isn’t ready for medications, I fully support their choice and will be there to provide guidance, education, and care until the time feels right for them. Above all, I listen, I value each person’s perspective, and I aim to create a safe space where patients feel truly heard.
