About My Clients
Clients often describe me as warm, approachable, and straightforward. I work intentionally to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your experiences openly. At the same time, I offer structured guidance and practical tools tailored to your goals, ensuring that therapy leads to meaningful and lasting progress. Whether you're managing long-standing emotional pain, coping with acute stress, or seeking stability in the midst of life changes.
My Background and Approach
I earned my Master of Arts in Forensic and Counseling Psychology in 2010 from Argosy University, San Francisco Bay Area. My academic background provided a solid foundation in understanding complex behavioral patterns, trauma impacts, and the intersections between mental health, personal history, and daily functioning. This training helps me approach each client with insight, structure, and compassion. In addition to my vocation, I enjoy playing volleyball, reading, and spending time in Monterey with my family. I am also a foodie who loves to experience all international foods and look for good (and perhaps “undiscovered” restaurants weekly. I am honored to support you as you begin this important journey of healing and growth.
