Hey there! Life can feel pretty overwhelming sometimes – whether it’s stress from school, work, or your relationships. And when you're trying to find support, it’s tough when no one really seems to understand you. Wouldn’t it be great to talk to a therapist who truly listens, gets where you're coming from, and communicates in a way that actually clicks with you? Maybe even someone who feels a little more familiar than what you usually see online? Most of my clients have offered the feedback that they were surprised how comfortable they felt opening up with me from our very first session!

I help clients who are dealing with:

• Depression
• Relationship Issues
• Substance Abuse
• Childhood Trauma and PTSD
• Borderline Personality Disorder
• Sexuality
• And more

Over the years I have learned that I seem to make a special connection with young adults in the 18-30 range, as they seem to just open right up to me, despite the fact that I have plenty of experience across the age spectrum and am comfortable working with all ages.  I’ve walked beside young & experienced professionals, parents with young kids, and clients from all walks of life & diverse cultural backgrounds as they face challenging times. I’m confident that I am equipped with the tools to help you, too!

I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology at the University of California Berkeley and my Master’s in Social Work at San Jose State University.

While in school, I struggled with an eating disorder and anxiety that threatened to derail my educational goals. A counselor who was warm, accepting, and trustworthy helped me to overcome these challenges. By graduation, I knew that I wanted to spend my career giving to others what that counselor gave me: Hope and the ability to live my best life. This experience has fueled a strong interest in treating those with eating disorders and body image struggles. I am an advocate for the Health At Every Size (HAES) movement and am interested in building my experience working with individuals who would like to overcome these challenges.

I believe that you are the expert on your own life. I’m here to walk beside you as you face life’s challenges, and share tools that will help you live your best life. Let’s talk about your goals and create a plan to help you reach them!
