Hello

I earned my Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy at Pepperdine University. My experience working in community mental health and dual diagnosis treatment allowed me to cultivate a passion for trauma-informed care. I understand that wellness is an intricate balancing act and use an integrative approach to help my clients navigate anxieties, avoid burnout, manage relationships, and heal after trauma.

My goal in therapy is to create a nurturing, secure environment where the client can work through the various stressors of daily life and tap into inner resources for presence, resilience, and happiness. My approach to treatment is client-centered and integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. This approach ensures that concerns are addressed holistically and goals are worked towards in a balanced and supportive manner. I work together with my clients using their strengths in changing unhelpful patterns and behaviors to rewrite a more authentic story.

​

When I am not with clients, I like to cultivate a balanced life by spending quality time with friends and family, cuddling my puppy Maple, and seeking new adventures through travel.
