I am also experienced in supporting individuals facing relationship challenges, identity development, and difficulties with emotional regulation. As a Queer therapist, I'm passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ population. I am drawn to this work because I value the depth and resilience within each person’s story. My approach is grounded in attachment-based theory and informed by evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
I am someone who wants to support personal growth in others. Life is rough and we don't always listen to our heads and that's okay. I am someone who tries to meet clients where they are and not judge.
If you’re struggling with your relationship with food, your body, or feeling stuck in cycles of restriction, bingeing, or guilt, you are not alone—and you don’t have to face it by yourself.

In addition to eating disorder treatment, I work with children, teens, and adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, personality disorders, substance use, and challenges related to identity and the LGBTQIA+ community. I am committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space where clients of all backgrounds feel seen, respected, & supported.
I have over 30 years of clinical, counseling and administrative experience working with individuals and couples, addressing the unique issues related to their unique life experiences. I have extensive professional and personal experience with military families and veterans. I understand first-hand the struggles of grief and medical conditions that impact all aspects of life.

Whether dealing with life transitions, parenting, depression, anxiety, or divorce, or simply seeking to express yourself and feel more confident, I am here to walk with you, provide insights, and support you toward lasting change.
Hi! My greatest passion is working with individuals who wish to free themselves from trauma patterns, negative self-image, dopamine-seeking patterns, and depression. I'm certified in hypnotherapy, ketamine-assisted therapy, and EMDR, and use a client-centered, trauma-informed approach.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in San Jose
Finding a postpartum therapist in San Jose starts with identifying the type of support you need. Postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety are among the most common concerns new parents face, but perinatal mental health also includes challenges like adjusting to parenthood, birth-related stress, relationship changes, and difficulty bonding with your baby. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LMFT, LCSW, LPCC, or psychologist — who has specific training or experience in perinatal mental health care. Some providers hold a Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C), which signals specialized expertise.
With a large number of mental health providers practicing across San Jose, Campbell, Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, and the broader South Bay, narrowing your search can feel like one more task on an already full plate. Consider what matters most: a provider who offers virtual sessions you can attend during nap time, someone who speaks your language, or a therapist whose approach matches your preferences. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and specialties before you commit.
Therapy in the San Jose area can be expensive out of pocket, but using in-network insurance coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront — and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a postpartum therapist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
