Whether you're a college student overwhelmed, a young woman figuring out who she is, or navigating a transition you didn't see coming — you don't have to white-knuckle it alone. I address what's hard right now with real tools, while doing the deeper work on patterns underneath. Easy to talk to, real with you, invested in your growth — not just your coping.

slow down long enough to actually understand what's going on beneath the surface. You'll get practical tools to manage the hard stuff right now, and we'll work together on the deeper patterns so you're not back here in two years dealing with the same things.

easy to talk to, direct without being harsh, and genuinely invested in their progress. They often say they feel seen without judgment — and that I have a way of naming things they couldn't quite put into words themselves.

feel stuck in the same patterns — anxiety, self-doubt, people pleasing, or struggling to form secure relationships. Many carry wounds from early family dynamics, especially with their mothers, that quietly shape how they show up in adulthood.

I know what it's like to carry things you haven't fully made sense of yet. My own healing journey showed me how transformative the right therapeutic relationship can be — and I wanted to offer that to others who are ready to do the work.

I'm trained in EMDR and attachment-focused EMDR, working with adults across California via telehealth. Our practice also includes other EMDR-trained clinicians — so if we're not the right fit for each other, we'll make sure you're matched with someone on our team who is.
