Welcome!

I'm passionate about creating a therapeutic space where connection, mutual respect, and empathy form the foundation of our work together. My goal is to build a collaborative, supportive dynamic that helps you process trauma, foster self-acceptance, and unlock your potential for personal growth. Whether you're facing specific challenges or simply seeking empowerment, I’m here to guide you toward a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

My approach is integrative and holistic, blending evidence-based practices that are tailored to your unique strengths and needs. I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities, including ACT, DBT, CBT, and Schema Therapy, along with my certification in CBASP for chronic depression and training in EMDR. This allows me to offer a healing-centered, trauma-informed lens to our work.

In addition to therapy, I also offer supervision and consultation for associate therapists working toward licensure, fostering a nurturing space for professional growth.

When I’m not in the office, you’ll find me diving into new hobbies, cheering on the Giants at a baseball game, or spending time with friends and family — those moments of connection keep me grounded and remind me of the importance of playfulness and balance in life. I bring this sense of balance and openness into my work, and I look forward to exploring how we can find that same sense of growth and connection together.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, whether it's your first time or you're continuing your journey, I'm here to support you in taking this important step at your own pace.

If you have any questions or are wondering if we'd be a good fit, don’t hesitate to reach out!

My modalities/approach: 

At the heart of my therapeutic approach is building trust and safety, creating a healing-centered space where we can work together to help you move through challenges. My work is always deeply relational, no matter what coping skills or therapeutic methods we are drawing from. We will collaborate to find the best tools that align with your unique needs, integrating practices that empower and support your healing journey, grounded in evidence based practices.

  • ACT helps you embrace your thoughts and feelings without judgment, while also guiding you to take meaningful action in alignment with your values. It empowers you to create space for both acceptance and change, leading to a more fulfilling life.

  • DBT combines mindfulness and emotional regulation skills to help you navigate intense emotions and challenging relationships. It focuses on finding balance between acceptance and change, cultivating greater emotional stability and resilience.

  • CBASP is a structured therapy that supports individuals with chronic depression by addressing the root causes of distress and developing healthier, more adaptive patterns of thinking and behavior. It emphasizes the importance of relational experiences in shaping your sense of self.

  • Schema Therapy helps uncover and transform deep-seated patterns of thought, behavior, and emotional responses that have developed over time, often stemming from past experiences. It provides insight into the core beliefs that shape your relationships, offering new ways to build healthier connections with yourself and others.

  • EMDR is a powerful, trauma-focused therapy that helps you process distressing memories by using bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements) to facilitate healing. It offers a path to reduce emotional pain and integrate past experiences, promoting lasting recovery and peace.
