Welcome

Sometimes the waters of life are disrupted when we change course. If you are managing a life transition, such as a recent move, college or grad school, a relationship breakup, beginning a new job, getting married, becoming a parent, starting perimenopause, etc. I can offer support and guidance to help you manage the new course and keep you moving forward.

I can help you explore changes while drawing strength from life experiences that make you unique and give depth to who you are. I provide respectful, direct feedback that is empathic and always with the intent of helping you towards your goals. At the core of my work is a belief that processing life changes is an opportunity for meaningful and lasting personal growth. I use a guiding lens that incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Humanistic therapy. 

I have been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT) since 2018 and have worked as a clinical director for a mental health nonprofit and as a therapist in private practice and telehealth organizations. Prior to becoming a therapist, I earned an MA in Education and worked in various educational settings.

I offer telehealth therapy sessions for residents of California and quarterly walking sessions by the beach in north Carlsbad, San Diego County.

I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and now live in southern California with my children and husband of almost twenty years. I recharge through being in nature, walking my dog, reading, listening to music, singing, exploring philosophy and spirituality, and spending time with friends and family.
