I am currently expanding my focus on adoption-related therapy for adults, adolescents and families who are exploring the impacts of adoption or are considering a search for birth family members. I am myself an adoptee and offer a unique lens into related trauma, much-needed supports and understanding.

Additionally, I work with those who are struggling with relationship issues, unhealthy communication, isolation, anxiety, depression, identity, aging, illness, the effects of recent or past trauma, or a combination of these.

My goal is to support all clients with hope, genuine care, and cultural and gender attunement, and I welcome humor when it comes up naturally. We will prioritize your safety in session, so you can feel free to explore and hopeful about achieving a fulfilling, open-hearted healing process. We will also focus on illuminating your innate strengths and encourage lifelong resources.

We can discuss initial and long-term goals, symptoms, resourcing, deeper material, and skills for ongoing wellness. My therapeutic approach is fine-tuned to each client's unique needs and are based in a caring, relational, somatically- and emotionally-focused environment.

I have a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University.

If you are new to therapy, please feel free to call or email and ask any questions you may have.
