In my 11 years of practice, I have experience in the treatment of mental health issues including trauma, depression, anxiety, attachment/relationship issues, behavioral issues, and life transitions. I consider myself an eclectic therapist. I incorporate evidence-based practices into my work with clients and individualize my techniques and approaches to best address their needs. I believe that my clients are the experts in their lives. Therefore, my work starts with understanding each individual client, holistically, to best assist them in meeting their desired goals in therapy.

I like going to the gym, hiking, shopping, dancing, eating, relaxing, karaoke, cleaning, and sleeping.

I seek out therapy, participate in professional consultations, and connect with friends, family, and my cat.

My favorite organization is Homeboy Industries because I served the incarcerated youth for many years and that population holds a special place in my heart. I admire and appreciate how this organization helps support such a disenfranchised population, giving them a chance and a way.

I recharge my cuddling with my cat, going to the gym, and connecting with friends and family.

Yes, I have a cat. My favorite pet story is every morning with him. He is the cutest and biggest ray of sunshine in my everyday life. Watching him play, sleep, and be loving are always memories that warm my heart.
