A safe space to feel, create and grow.

I work with the most amazing people who happen to be struggling. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Registered Art Therapist with nearly 10 years of experience, and I work predominantly with adults looking for support as they process and navigate life's challenges. I come from a place of compassion and take a person-centered approach, incorporating art therapy when it feels right. Creative self-expression is a powerful tool for self-discovery and for feeling truly seen and understood. Being human today is hard. You deserve support navigating it. All sessions are available via telehealth throughout California.

MY therapeutic approach

  • Red-orange starburst shape

    Curiosity

    Every person carries a unique inner world. I approach our work together with genuine curiosity — no assumptions, no judgments. Just an open and attentive presence as we explore what's true for you.

    Compassion

    Healing happens in the presence of kindness. I bring warmth and deep respect to every session, holding space for all of you — the parts that are struggling and the parts that are strong.

    Connection

    The therapeutic relationship is at the heart of everything. When you feel truly seen and understood, something shifts. That connection — between you and your own inner world, and between us — is where real change begins.

"What I believe most deeply is that growth isn't about becoming someone new. It's about returning to who you already are, beneath everything life has layered on top."
