I specialize in helping people navigate the phase after medical treatment or recovery ends but life still doesn't feel right. As a licensed psychotherapist, brain tumor survivor, and breast cancer survivor, I understand the challenges that can remain long after others expect you to be "back to normal." Together, we'll address the emotional, cognitive, and nervous system impacts of illness, injury, and major life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based therapy, mindfulness, and practical tools to help you feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to yourself. Healing isn't about returning to who you were—it's about creating a life that feels whole again.

Welcome! I am currently accepting client and I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ adolescents and young adults, providing affirming care through a solution‐focused and client‐centered approach. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, supporting effective and meaningful change. I also incorporate Narrative Therapy and Trauma‐Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address trauma and promote healing when appropriate.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially when you are navigating the challenges you are facing. Many of my clients come to therapy wanting a space where they feel safe, accepted, and truly understood. I strive to provide this so we can work collaboratively to move toward greater clarity, resilience, and well‐being.

Growing up near a national park, I am consistently reminded of and influenced by the importance of nature on our physical, mental, and emotional health in my mental health practice. As an LMFT, I've worked with a variety of populations, most of whom experienced major trauma or complex trauma, and aid them in reconnecting to their sense of self and safety. I received my MS from California Lutheran University with a specialization in trauma and BA from CSU Chico. I have been licensed for 4 years and have provided therapy for the last 8 years including an associate and traineeship.

I received an outstanding excellent therapy award in 2021 and am committed to lives being changed. I am inspired daily by my husband, two adult children, and in love with my five grandchildren. In my spare time I love exercising, running miles, and reading educational/spiritual literature to keep myself sharp to assist others in sharpen themselves.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in San Jose

Searching for therapists in San Jose starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Provider profiles can show whether someone uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what you can expect from sessions.

San Jose has a broad mental health care market, with therapists practicing across neighborhoods and nearby communities like Almaden, Campbell, and Cupertino. In-person therapy may work well if you want an office near home, work, or school. Virtual therapy can add more scheduling options, especially if commute time or a busy calendar shapes your search. Before booking, review each therapist’s availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their communication style in their bio.

Therapy in San Jose can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, check your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
