Hello,

Welcome to my profile!

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and I have been in the mental health field for the past 10 years. I have a Master's Degree in Counseling. I've supported individuals presented with Substance abuse, PSTD, Depression, Anxiety, and many more. I've utilized different modalities such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I've enjoy supporting with individuals that are going through different walks of life

I am a Bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working with diverse populations. Starting your healing journey can seem overwhelming and lonely. My aim is to walk alongside and help you gain a better understanding of how your experiences have impacted the way you approach life. I believe in a person centered approach as you are the expert of your life and your life experiences, so collaborative we will write your new narrative.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in the Bay Area, and I believe healing happens in spaces where you feel safe, understood, and not judged. I bring a warm, grounded presence to therapy and aim to create a relationship where you don’t have to “perform” or have it all figured out.

I’m someone who values creativity and expressive arts, and I often weave gentle, creative approaches into sessions when helpful. My work is trauma-informed and collaborative, meaning we move at your pace and center what feels most supportive for you.

In my clinical work, I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, and elements of ACT. I have a special interest in trauma healing, nervous system regulation, attachment patterns, anxiety, and supporting clients who feel stuck in old patterns but are ready for change.

I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and identity exploration. Whether you’re coming in with something specific or just a sense that “something isn’t working anymore,” we can explore that together with curiosity and care.

I have over 20 years of experience helping clients explore and navigate challenges related to relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. My approach is client-centered, meaning therapy is tailored to each individual’s unique needs and goals. I integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, and Attachment Theory, with particular attention to how early life experiences shape our relationships with ourselves and others.

Living with anxiety, depression, or trauma can create deep feelings of isolation and hopelessness. Relationship struggles and low self-esteem often fuel fear, self-doubt, and emotional overwhelm. Breaking cycles of overthinking, managing intense emotions, and facing uncomfortable people or situations can feel exhausting. When emotions feel unstable and life feels heavy, recognizing the need for change is an important first step. While change can be intimidating, having a supportive therapist can make the process feel more manageable and less isolating.

I genuinely care about my clients and strive to meet them with empathy, compassion, and respect. I have helped many individuals navigate difficult life circumstances by increasing self-awareness, strengthening emotional regulation, and reflecting on personal experiences. Together, we work to better understand the patterns that may be keeping you feeling stuck or distressed.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. Feeling safe and supported is essential for healing and growth. I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space where you can speak openly and work toward meaningful change at your own pace.

I use an eclectic approach to fit my clients needs. I integrate various modalities with an emphasis on recognizing trauma using a trauma informed approach. In addition, I use a.solution oriented practical approach to dealing with problems, and place a large emphasis on childhood development, attachment and history.

I have a Master’s degree in Family Therapy and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology with specialization in Depth Psychology. That means I’m going to work both with your responses to the external system that you live in and with the deep psychological parts of you that go back to your childhood. Finally, I am certified in Hypnosis and have several years of meditation and mindfulness training, and also use those perspectives to help my clients.

I believe anyone can live a meaningful and fulfilling life and that we all can change and grow even in the most challenging times. For over twenty years, I have worked with Adults, Couples, Teens/Children, and families from a diverse population, helping clients change problematic behaviors and thinking patterns to achieve wellness and growth.
