About Me

A part of me has wanted to be a therapist since I was young. I embraced this part, leading to supporting individuals, couples, groups, and families over the past 9 years. My priority became helping clients create tangible change and meaningful lives and relationships. I specialized in working with loneliness, depression, trauma/abuse, sexuality/sex, and attachment.

I earned a B.S. Honors in Neuroscience from the University of Michigan and a M.S.S.W from the University of Texas at Austin. I’ve worked in non-profit settings, psychiatric crisis, and research institutes.

After living in Austin, Texas for almost a decade, I moved out to the Bay area in 2023. Since moving here, I have found a love for the natural beauty and culture of the area. I enjoy hikes with my corgi, spending the day in a park, and swimming.

My Approach

Together, we will discover how your emotions are important to understanding your authentic self. With me, we can free you from past traumas and relational patterns causing you to feel stuck. Using evidence-based approaches, I will help you to respond to your emotions in healthy ways—moving towards growth and connection.

I integrate the the following modalities into my work:

• Attachment-based therapy

• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

• Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT)

• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

• Motivational Interviewing (MI)
