Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist

LMFT #144372 Exp 1/31/2026

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist focused on helping my clients find true lasting healing from the impacts of chronic stress, trauma, and adverse experiences. I am passionate about identifying people’s strengths and helping them explore what keeps them from finding happiness, purpose, and fulfillment in their lives. Conversations from the deep, thought-provoking questions, practical information, somatic work, and big laughs are all found in my office.

My approach integrates a psychodynamic lens (an understanding that our upbringing and developmental environment contribute to the challenges people face) and evidence-based treatment techniques that influence how our thought patterns affect our behaviors. My goal is to help guide clients toward relief and hope, to understand old patterns and create new ones.

Whether it's anxiety, depression, trauma, life transition, or seeking personal growth, I am committed to helping my clients navigate their journeys toward self-discovery. I believe every individual has the capacity for growth and healing, and I am dedicated to ‘being with’ my clients while they live more fulfilling lives.

I also offer services in Spanish.
