About My Clients

My clients tend to struggle with feeling stuck, overwhelmed by their thoughts and feelings, and trouble communicating regarding needs. Often they have trouble sleeping or unwinding or have pressures of being "perfect". They may also be afraid to take chances, and want to communicate more about their sexual desires. I enjoy working with those struggling with issues related anxiety, trauma, am LGTQI affirming, sex positive, perinatal and postpartum.

My Background and Approach

I am licensed in California and Idaho. I am an Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) practitioner and support clients in reaching their goals through changing their relationship to their thoughts and feelings and behaviors. I incorporate values and what is truly important to you in life as well as mindfulness in lots of different ways (not only sitting with eyes closed although that’s a possibility depending on client interest). I also try to show up as a genuine human being and have many folx I work with who have had rough experiences with therapist, I work to reframe that by showing up with transparency and humor. As we say in ACT, we are all in the same soup! Thoughts are inevitable - what we do with them is what matters. I am licensed in California and Idaho. Certified sex therapist through AASECT and perinatal mental health certified through PSI.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I have experience with anxiety and depression and identify as member of LGBTQI community. Due to having first hand experience as well as training and over a decade and half of experience, I can help you identify your struggles and challenges and move towards success. I am passionate about living a great life full of meaning and purpose. I enjoy finding ways to move my body every day - whether it is swimming, yoga, biking and being outside (my happy place).
