Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes we need a place where we can be completely honest without feeling judged. I'm an LCSW who takes a relaxed, collaborative, and practical approach to therapy. I especially enjoy working with women navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationships, self-esteem, and the many pressures that can come with being a woman today.


As a half-Japanese woman, I also understand that identity can be complicated. Culture, family expectations, race, relationships, and the different parts of who we are can sometimes be difficult to reconcile. I welcome conversations about cultural and racial identity, belonging, family dynamics, and the experience of navigating multiple cultures.


I have a particular interest in working with women, women Veterans, women experiencing infertility or fertility-related stress, and Asian Americans navigating identity, culture, family expectations, or belonging. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, and find realistic ways to move forward.
