I partner with individuals and families to create personalized treatment plans that illuminate the path forward. My approach is grounded in a core belief: strong, authentic connections are essential to healing.
My Approach
Using evidence-based therapies—including collaborative problem solving, EMDR and acceptance and commitment therapy—I help clients build the skills and insights needed to create meaningful change. I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, autism, and trauma.
Supporting Families & Neurodivergent Communities
I specialize in helping parents, caregivers, and spouses of individuals with mental health concerns. My focus is on equipping you to better care for yourself, advocate effectively for your loved one's needs, and communicate with clarity and compassion.
As a parent myself, I understand the unique challenges families face. I'm the author of The Language of Advocacy workbook and workshop series, teaching parents how to speak up for their children. I have also served on the board of Helping the Behaviorally Challenging Child (HBCC) and currently facilitate support groups through NAMI Orange County.
Experience You Can Trust
I hold doctoral and master's degrees in clinical psychology from Azusa Pacific University and Pepperdine University, with training at Pacific Clinics, UC Irvine Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente. My research includes co-authoring a case study on effective trauma treatment modalities.
I am a contracted provider with several EAP providers including Lyra, Spring Health, BHS, and CuraLink.
Let's start with a conversation. I offer a free consultation to discuss your unique needs and explore how we can work together
