About My Clients

Whether you find yourself feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just not sure why things are feeling “off,” therapy can provide a space for exploration and growth. Together we will work to notice all parts of your internal world, so that you may move towards a more resilient and integrated sense of self.

My Background and Approach

My approach to therapy is informed by contemporary psychoanalytic theory and technique, attachment theory, trauma studies and mindfulness. I also draw on systems thinking to help build understanding of how your experiences may be shaped by generational trauma and societal structures. I hold a Master’s of Arts in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles, where I focused my studies in Spiritual and Depth Psychology coursework. I completed my clinical training at Valley Community Counseling Clinic (VCCC), where I gained an in-depth understanding of psychoanalytic theory, including a focus on child development. While at VCCC I actively participated in a Culture and Psychoanalysis Lab and a Queer and Trans Affirming Supervision Group. I offer a culturally sensitive approach to psychoanalytic psychotherapy and consistently seek learning opportunities in cultural competence.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
