My work helps you move from self-criticism to self-understanding, and from constant reactivity to clarity and connection — within yourself and your relationships. I create a space that feels safe, supportive, and curious — one where you can learn to regulate your nervous system, reconnect to your needs, and build a sense of trust in yourself.

Walk the long paths and hike those metaphorical mountains together! We will explore those unconscious patterns that keep you stuck, the experiences that have shaped you, and find what you need. If you want me to be direct or indirect, I will. I listen to you and your needs. I adapt and recognize the client is the catalyst to the healing process.

warm, caring, and helpful mixed with a bit of dry humor and sarcasm. They frequently comment on my genuineness and how they can feel that I truly and deeply care about them (which I thank all of my past and current clients, because if it weren't for who they were as genuine human beings, those connections wouldn't have formed!)

feel like they’re always “on.” Their mind rarely rests; replays moments, worries about what’s next, or wonders if they're doing enough. This can show up as overthinking leading to disconnection from themselves. It may be exhaustion that comes with work, school, parenting — wanting to be patient and present, but feeling triggered or stretched too thin.

I endured my own childhood trauma as a toddler and learned how pivotal support can be for a child and as an adult! This trauma has given me an in-depth understanding about how experiences shape our brains and wired a genuine deep care and connection to my clients no matter the pain or struggle they experience.

From working in East LA with 0-5 population to working with military personnel and kids/teens in San Diego, I've walked with many clients. Studying in a foreign country and living in various states, I embrace adaptability and have gained valuable perspectives. I use an attachment, trauma-informed, and neuroscience lens. I embrace each individual's story.
