I primarily work with adult women who are struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-worth, relationship challenges, or the lasting effects of difficult family dynamics. Many of my clients grew up with narcissistic, emotionally immature, absent, or addicted parents, difficult friendships and are ready to understand how those experiences continue to affect their lives, roles as mothers and relationships today.

Therapy with me is a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you'll feel heard and validated while also being encouraged to make meaningful changes. Together, we'll set goals and work on practical skills such as coping, communication, boundary setting, and self-care.

Sessions are 50 minutes each. We will start by getting to know each other and establishing your goals for therapy. Each week, I will have a plan for our session, but because this is your time, I will honor whatever you choose to discuss on any given day. We will work collaboratively to reach your goals at your pace.

There are no guarantees that therapy with me will work for you. I will say that you will get out of this journey what you put into it. If for some reason you feel that I am not a good fit, I will strongly encourage you to continue with a new therapist, rather than write therapy off entirely.

My approach is tailored to each individual. My training includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment-based, motivational interviewing, narrative, person-centered, and relational approaches.

I offer in-person and online therapy in California, with in-person sessions available in Los Alamitos. I also offer online therapy in South Carolina.
