My Therapeutic Range

We all deserve to heal, grow, and find peace within ourselves and our relationships. That said, this work of going inward, looking into our hurt and trauma from the past or present, and transforming them into something meaningful isn't easy — we all know that. However, it's also what we do with our human resilience.

In your quest for healing and wholeness, I'm here to walk alongside you, as your witness while you go through a courageous path beyond survival — to thrive and feel alive. I'm here to hold space and remind you that you are not alone in this brave journey of exploring your inner world in our safe relational context. 

My education, clinical training/experience, and supervision so far have allowed me to work effectively with Trauma, including Complex, Relational, and Intergenerational Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, and Grief. I work with individuals, couples and teens looking to heal, uncover opportunities for growth and revival within the relationships.

Currently, I am seeing clients through Yellow Chair Collective, a passionate group practice in Los Angeles, CA.  Find out more about my practice and approach through their website.
