Hello! My approach is centered in the belief that authentic connection with ourselves and others heals. Therapy is an opportunity to dive deep, to develop greater self knowledge, to come into wholeness, accepting and integrating all of our parts and aligning our lives with our Truth and the fullness of who we are. I look forward to the opportunity to support you.
I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a safe, judgment-free space.
I work with adults who want to better understand themselves, strengthen emotional resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change. My style is warm, collaborative, and empowering — I believe you are the expert on your own life.
As a graduate of the University of Southern California, my training emphasized both clinical excellence and authentic human connection. I integrate CBT and DBT-informed approaches to help clients develop practical skills for managing emotions, navigating relationships, setting healthy boundaries, and shifting unhelpful thought patterns.
I was drawn to this work because I’ve seen how powerful self-awareness and skill-building can be in transforming not only how we cope, but how we experience ourselves and our relationships. I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a grounded, supportive space where you feel truly seen — while also gently challenged to grow in ways that build confidence, clarity, and lasting self-trust.
More that fifteen years of teaching English and drama at a Los Angeles public high school taught me many things - primarily, it taught me how often people's barriers to achievement are not due to any lack of skill or ability, but rather from emotional barriers stemming from stress, adversity and trauma. So, I went back to graduate school to pursue a new career as a therapist so that I could help in a different way. My training and experience has focused on treating anxiety disorders, PTSD (including Complex-PTSD) and also couples - helping them to navigate challenges and triggers so that they can reset and reconnect.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in San Jose
Searching for OCD therapists in San Jose starts with finding someone who has specific training in obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, reassurance seeking, avoidance, and related concerns like anxiety or stress. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach that some therapists use to support people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for ERP, OCD, intrusive thoughts, compulsions, or related experience in their bios.
San Jose has a range of therapy options, from in-person appointments near local neighborhoods and office hubs to virtual sessions that expand your choices across California. For OCD care, it helps to look beyond whether a therapist lists OCD as a specialty and review how they describe their training, approach, and session structure. You may also want to compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. A therapist’s profile can help you see whether their experience matches what you want to address before you book.
Therapy in San Jose can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find OCD therapists, many of whom accept insurance, show current availability, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, then review therapist bios, compare options, and book directly when you’re ready.
