About
As a woman of color who has known both trauma and healing, I am deeply committed to helping individuals build the capacity to rediscover safety, strength, and self-connection.
I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker with 4 years of experience. I’ve worked with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relational challenges. I approach each person’s story with empathy and curiosity, creating a safe and supportive space for healing and growth.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy, helping clients build awareness, regulate emotions, and shift unhelpful patterns. I blend structure with compassion to support clients move toward meaningful personal growth.
I know reaching out for help takes courage. My goal is to meet you where you are, without judgment, and walk alongside you as you build insight, confidence, and self-trust. Together, we’ll work to create lasting change that feels both sustainable and authentic.

I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ACSW) with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California and a bachelor's degree in Psychology from California State University, Northridge. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, seeking healthier coping strategies, or looking to better understand yourself, I'm here to support you in working toward your goals.
I take a collaborative, person-centered approach, tailoring treatment to each client's needs. Drawing from CBT, MI, strengths-based, and solution-focused approaches, I help clients understand unhelpful thought patterns, develop coping skills, and build on their strengths. Clients can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space to foster resilience and growth.
Wherever you are in your journey, you deserve a space where you feel heard, supported, and understood. Together, we'll work to navigate life's challenges, build on your strengths, and help you move toward the life you envision. I look forward to supporting you when you're ready to begin.

My approach to working with clients stems from believing that the client knows themselves best and with the help of direct feedback, understanding, and guidance, the client can discover a path forward in navigating their mental health with the strengths they already have in place.
Hello, I have been working with kids, teens, and young adults as an LMFT since 2016. I have worked with folks looking for support around substance use and harm reduction, self-harm, depression, anxiety, grief, and OCD. I am not limited to these areas and also have experience with relationships, attachment styles, and more.
There's no wrong way to build resilience. I'm client-centered and navigate based on where you want to go. I hold a holistic view, discovering what parts of your life need balancing. With ERP work, I offer gentle support and space when you're ready to move forward. I appreciate harm reduction approaches to substance use and safer ways to use if sobriety isn't your goal. I'm here to support what you want to work on in session.
Please feel free to reach out anytime. I would love to hear your story and hold space to navigate your mental health needs.

Individual therapy, also known as Individual therapy, allows people to engage in private sessions with a skilled therapist, counselor, or psychologist. The core objective of individual therapy is to establish a secure and confidential setting where you can openly discuss whatever emotional, psychological, or behavioral challenges you face. Through these one-on-one sessions, the client and therapist work together to delve into, comprehend, and ultimately find solutions for the issues at hand in their life.
Individual therapy unfolds in a structured process, commencing with an initial assessment in which the therapist gathers essential information about your history, concerns, and objectives. Together, you and your therapist collaboratively establish specific, attainable goals for your sessions, which can encompass symptom alleviation, personal development, or finding solutions to particular challenges.
