I am a warm, deeply compassionate therapist dedicated to helping adults break through the heavy patterns of trauma, anxiety, and depression so they can finally find lasting peace. As a graduate of the University of Southern California (USC), I blend high-level academic training with a gentle, down-to-earth approach that meets you exactly where you are. My time at the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Options Counseling gave me extensive, specialized experience guiding everyday adults, military veterans, and first responders through their toughest seasons. In my care, you won't just find a clinician with strong credentials; you will find a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental partner ready to help you reclaim your life.
