I earned my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Santa Clara University and my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Azusa Pacific University. As a therapist I have a warm, empathetic, and creative approach. I enjoy drawing from a variety of different therapeutic approaches such as Client Centered Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and more based on my client’s strengths and needs. I also enjoy utilizing Play Therapy when working with children and families. I am passionate about supporting youth and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, and attachment issues. I have previous experience working with children, families, and parents offering parenting and family support, neurodivergent-affirming care, and individual support for anxiety, depression, trauma, and attachment issues. It is an honor to work alongside my clients and it’s my goal to offer a safe space for them to feel seen and accepted as they explore, heal, grow, and reach their goals.

 

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with family and friends, trying new foods and local restaurants, cooking a new recipe, or watching the latest films at the movie theatre. I also love to travel and experience new places and cultures when I get the chance.
