About me
I'm a licensed therapist practicing in California and Pennsylvania with extensive experience supporting clients through a wide range of life challenges. My work centers on helping individuals navigate stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and intimacy concerns with compassion and skill.
I specialize in supporting clients with trauma, eating disorders, life transitions, and self-discovery. I'm particularly passionate about helping people work through communication patterns, isolation, shame, and attachment issues. I also have deep experience supporting LGBTQ+ clients, and I welcome conversations around sexuality, polyamory, and alternative relationship structures.
My approach honors the complexity of human experience—including workplace stress, family dynamics, grief, mood challenges, and identity questions. I work with clients facing postpartum transitions, gender dysphoria, sexual health concerns, and the unique pressures faced by first responders, military personnel, and caregivers.
I believe therapy works best when it's collaborative, culturally responsive, and grounded in genuine connection. My goal is to help you build self-compassion, improve how you relate to others, and move toward greater authenticity and purpose in your life. I'm here to support you with warmth and without judgment, whatever brings you to therapy.
