About My Clients

Have you ever felt like life's daily stressors are too much to handle? Are you wondering where you can turn to find some extra support? We all face challenges in our life, whether it is a transition to a new school or job, conflict in relationships, or difficulty managing emotions. Seeking professional help is the first vital step in making a change. I work with children, adolescents, and adults looking to transform their lives.

My Background and Approach

I am a licensed therapist in La Jolla who treats children, adolescents, and adults. I enjoy integrating evidence-based practices with the development of an empathic relationship in order to help others create a life that is fulfilling, rewarding, and worth living. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral problems. I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Psychology with an emphasis in Neuroscience from the University of California, San Diego. I went on to graduate with honors with a Master of Social Work degree from San Diego State University. I have received extensive psychotherapy training by the psychiatry departments at the University of California, San Diego and Rady Children's Hospital, San Diego. I actively advocate for the individuals I work with to practice self-care to enhance their sense of overall wellness. To practice my own self-care, I enjoy reading, jogging, spending time with my husband, and playing with my dog.
