I am a graduate of University of Southern California School of Medicine and New York University Psychiatry residency. I treat adult patients for a wide variety of mental health issues or disorders. I also welcome patients, who do not have diagnosable psychiatric disorders but are interested in their personal growth. I tailor my therapeutic approach to each individual patient’s issues and goals. Thus, I utilize eclectic style of psychotherapy incorporating various therapeutic approaches based on their effectiveness for individual needs of each particular patient.

If your middle name is “Too Much,” “Not Enough,” “Out of Control” or “Unloveable” I’ve got you. I support folks who are up in their heads, struggling with self-trust and self-love. Having an unbalanced body and brain due to trauma, disordered eating, relational betrayal, andor neurodivergence can cause a lot of pain but that doesn’t have to be you. Using somatic, expressive arts, and traditional forms of therapy, I help people overcome feeling overwhelmed for more safety and satisfaction. As a neurodivergent, sexual trauma survivor, I understand the rawness and resilience of being human. My clients describe me as warm, curious, and affirming, with a dash of humor. Being deeply attuned to my clients is very important to me. I'm passionate about helping clients discover their inherent gifts and resources. If you're looking for a guide who can simultaneously hold and push you, I could be the therapist for you. I look forward to connecting!

Healing from trauma isn't something we're meant to do alone. When we feel safe enough to reconnect with our nervous system, especially with the support of an attuned therapist, therapy can be deeply powerful. I specialize with adults healing from PTSD, C-PTSD, childhood trauma, and attachment wounds. I also support survivors of sexual assault, toxic relationships, and those facing depression, anxiety, panic, or suicidal thoughts. Using trauma-based therapies like EMDR, Brainspotting, and Somatic Experiencing. I help clients gently process painful memories and reconnect with their sense of safety, wholeness, and inner resilience. Therapy with me is relational. My priority is building safety and trust. I take the time to get to know you, bringing presence, compassion, attunement, and authenticity to our work. Together, we can take meaningful steps toward creating the life you envision and deserve.

I've been in private practice since 1987, working with individuals and couples. I work with men and women, ages 19 and above, who may be overwhelmed and confused by a life crisis or transition; who may find themselves holding back in their lives, not knowing what they want or afraid to go after it; repeating the same patterns in each of their unsatisfying relationships, leaving them feeling lonely and unseen. I am honored to accompany each client on a journey toward wholeness and peace of mind. Having traveled extensively, I have a deep appreciation of other cultures and languages.

I believe that we make the best decisions about our lives with the information and tools that we have in the moment or have survived with; you are the expert of the experiences in your own life. My approach to helping is to establish a joint relationship with whomever is in the room; it is a collaboration where you discover how to change your relationships with those in your life, and have choices about what those possibilities may look like, while opening new directions that may not have been possible before. I believe that we will be on a journey together, where my role is to be an ally to help you address what you believe lies ahead of you, to create a better future. My therapeutic style is to use a variety of approaches that fit you, with a caring space, in helping you integrate whatever you may have difficulty sorting through or have struggled with in the past.

Hi! I’m so glad you are here and taking steps towards putting yourself first. You may have found yourself in a challenging spot and are unsure of where to go or how to even imagine a world outside of your present moment. It may even seem easier to smile through the pain and respond with a typical “I’m fine” when someone asks how you’re doing. Well, I want to know how you are. I’m here to listen, help you learn new skills, and incorporate behaviors that lead to a better tomorrow. Beginning therapy can be scary and overwhelming. The fact that you are here searching for your next step is a great achievement and a sign you’re embarking on a significant life journey to wellness. Together I’d like to create an environment where you feel safe and comfortable to get started on that new journey. As a clinician, I want to establish a relationship that’s equal, empowering, kind, and honest. My goal is to embark on this adventure with you and assist you in recognizing new paths, turns, or hurdles in the process. My approach is person-centered and invites a more conversational session to unpack and discover what’s happening together. I will help you create a more compassionate relationship with yourself and find the stepping stones to your miracle world. How I work: I work to create a trusting relationship with each of my clients and utilize a person-centered approach that ensures a unique and personalized treatment plan. I will often integrate a cognitive behavioral or solution-focused intervention to assist you in understanding yourself and others around you to the best of your ability. My experience has granted me the opportunity to work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relational issues. I have learned that every client’s symptoms present differently and engaging with the client where they are presently has encouraged clients to acknowledge and confront things that aren’t working or are working great for them! I believe that acknowledging our challenges while simultaneously celebrating our victories is the most rewarding approach for both you and me! If you are feeling ready to turn the page and get started, please reach out, and let’s talk.

I believe that most people coming to therapy are looking for similar things: to have someone truly listen, validate their experience, acknowledge what they've been through and what they're facing now, and give them some helpful suggestions on how to get to the other side of their challenge. My goal is to meet people where they are emotionally, provide a supportive, nonjudgmental atmosphere, and help people navigate their way through painful experiences. I think that growth and healing take place faster when a person has someone they trust to walk alongside them rather than having to walk the path alone. And, that's exactly what I am here to do. I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities, and customize my treatment based on the specific needs of each person coming in. I deeply believe in collaborating with each client to help determine the type of approach that will help facilitate change and create a sense of empowerment in one's circumstances.

Brene Brown says: "If we really want to live a joyful, connected, and meaningful life, we must talk about things that get in the way.” For people who come from families of color, particularly Asian and Latinx families, talking about generational trauma is taboo. Your pain is valid. You do not have to ignore or forgive them, "because they're family." When we sit down for therapy, I am here to listen, empathize, and help you heal. Making that first call to a new therapist is scary. And telling a complete stranger all your deepest, darkest secrets to try and feel better can seem hopeless. I won't wave a magic wand to make your problems go away. What I will do is walk with you on your path to healing. It's easy to get lost on that path. Luckily, my experience and compassion are the GPS.

I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist (20 years) and also a certified yoga teacher and use a holistic, integrative approach to psychotherapy. With this holistic framework, I blend both traditional methods and mind-body work for those who are interested in this approach. I blend mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, positive psychology and health psychology tailored for individual needs.
