I believe in an integrated approach to mental health where my job is to provide individual treatment and coordinate with existing systems like primary care physicians, teachers, schools, and other natural supports to improve children's functioning.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who lives in Northern California. I began working with children struggling with mental health challenges, first as direct care staff at a residential treatment facility and then in a more clinical role in a Therapeutic Behavioral Services department. My doctoral program and completion of my Ph.D. in clinical psychology included an internship at large community-based mental health clinic serving children in Sacramento County. I completed my post doctoral training in Kaiser’s children and adolescent psychiatry department where I still work as a psychologist.

Are you an animal lover? If a four-legged co-therapist sounds good, then you will love our center. The office is located on a beautiful ranch where animals abound. You can choose to talk in the office with a dog at your feet, a cat in your lap, or just enjoy the view of the horse pasture from the window. If walking and talking is easier, we can stroll the grounds, sit by the duck pond, or pet goats in the petting zoo. Or try Equine Assisted Counseling, an effective, experiential approach to therapy. You will interact with horses who act as a mirror, allowing you to gain valuable insights and solutions. The choice is yours.

I help children and adults finding their strengths, cope and reconnect.
We all need support because at times life can be difficult. It may be enough to talk with friends or other people you trust but sometimes not. Maybe you are feeling alone or not connected with yourself and people around you. Therapy can be a way to help you reconnect. I offer a genuine environment in which we look together how you can get back on track. I believe that connection is a basic human need: being connected with yourself and with the people around you. This is a core value in all of my work.

I know that we are living in unique and challenging times. It can sometimes be difficult to navigate the life stressors that come our way, especially when those stressors lead to disruptions in our ability to cope and function the way we wish to. I understand the importance we place on developing and maintaining strong and supportive interpersonal relationships with our families, our children, our partners, and our communities. I also am a strong believer in the need to have a therapist who can listen, support, and offer you real tools to manage stressors and mental health issues.

Hello and Welcome! I received a Master of Science degree in Psychology but upon graduating, I learned that my true passion was to become a clinician. And so, I returned to school and obtained a Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy (2024). I work with a variety of clients that includes children, adolescents, adults, and families. I think that it is important to build a rapport and then I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment so that we can begin your therapeutic journey. I am a firm believer in setting short- and-long term goals. In addition, I will help you find the time (and the energy) for self-care.
