About My Clients

I help people navigate change: going to college, having a child, mourning the loss of a loved one, ending a relationship, grieving expectations and hopes around fertility, and so much more. If you have found yourself in the midst of a change or are looking for your life to feel different, you are in the right place and I am here to help. My goal is to come alongside you and meet you where you are. Together we can work to heal pain from the past.

My Background and Approach

After earning my Doctorate in Psychology at Rosemead School of Psychology, I moved to Washington to complete my Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Primary Care Behavioral Health with Swedish Medical Group. I continued my work in Primary Care for a year and a half before relocating to Virginia and settling into private practice in Northern Virginia. As a clinical psychologist, I have worked with a wide variety of clients throughout my career and am passionate about helping clients work towards their therapy goals while exploring how their past is impacting their present and future selves. I aim to provide a kind, compassionate space for clients to process and explore the areas of life that might be causing them pain.
