I will strive to meet you where you are with respect and authenticity to spur healthy transformation and lasting healing within yourself and interpersonally. Sometimes, we can't see what keeps us trapped in destructive cycles and emotional distress. Together, we can explore how you may be stuck so you can break free and move towards thriving. 

Clients have shared that they appreciate my caring, playful presence, accepting nature, and multicultural sensitivity. My style is integrative, flexible, and tailored to unique client needs. Many theoretical models support my approach, including Humanistic, Psychodynamic, Attachment, Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral, Mindfulness-based, and Multicultural. My work is influenced by a range of modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Attachment-Based Family Therapy, Ecotherapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Skidmore College in upstate New York with a BA in Psychology. I attained my MA degree with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Counseling at Palo Alto University. Additionally, I graduated with honors from Dominican University with a Master in Business Administration in Sustainability. This program’s focus on applied systems theory and organizational psychology was one of my foundational influences in thinking about how to facilitate meaningful and lasting transformation.

Before joining this practice, I worked at Peace-It-Together Counseling Agency in Santa Clara. I worked with clients facing issues such as depression, anxiety, panic, complex trauma, suicidality, chronic illness, disability, mood disorders, aging and life transitions, career challenges, sleep problems, phobias, addiction, neurodiversity challenges, marital problems, parenting challenges, behavioral issues, anger management, LGBTQ+ challenges, racism, immigration, family conflicts, and co-parenting challenges.

My life, education, and work in sustainability, adolescent education, and mental health have given me a deep appreciation and respect for the incredible variety of characteristics, experiences, and perspectives that make each individual unique. These experiences and exposure to many different cultures have cultivated a strong belief in our inherent dignity and worth as diverse beings. My experiences working with underserved and marginalized communities have helped me understand systemic disadvantages and traumas, instilling the values of equality and social justice. As a therapist, I believe it is critical to explore and consider the impacts of dynamics like power, privilege, and oppression on individual mental health and relationships to help cultivate individual and interpersonal healing, resiliency, and empowerment.

I am a Member of The American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy and The California Association for Marriage and Family Therapists. I am also a mom, a wife, a guitar-playing singer/songwriter, a jewelry designer, and a lover of yoga, hiking, and paddle boarding.
