A bit about me as a therapist:

I love working with teens and families to rebuild trust, independence, and communication.

My approach to couples therapy mirrors this—creating space for growth and understanding in relationships.

I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to support healing from traumatic experiences by reconnecting memory networks and addressing cognitive distortions.

My physical office is located in Pasadena and I also offer telehealth sessions throughout California. My style is direct yet compassionate, LGBTQIA+ affirming and I firmly believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is crucial for enhancing your overall well-being.

Prior to working in private practice, I spent time at a private intensive outpatient for teens, young adults and families in Pasadena, CA and Laguna Beach, CA. Additionally, I have worked as a therapist and advocate on a college campus, in child welfare, sexual assault advocacy and domestic violence.
