Starting or considering therapy is a big first step, and holding a safe space for you is an honor. As a seasoned therapist, I help young adults and professionals find more meaning and fulfillment by overcoming stress, conflict, burnout, trauma, and substance. In addition, with nearly a decade of experience in tech/startup and related industries, I understand the unique pressures of fast-paced, high-demand environments and finding balance to thrive.
I blend proven therapies with innovative approaches, including medications to reduce alcohol use and psychedelic-assisted therapies when appropriate. I’ve held research and teaching positions at UCLA, USC, and DU. Having traveled to over 70+ countries, my culturally informed approach ensures that therapy is tailored to your unique background and experiences.
We’ll collaboratively explore your therapy concerns and needs in a safe and affirming session. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan to help you learn tools to raise awareness, handle difficult emotions and conflict, reach your goals, and feel empowered.
