I am a UCLA-trained clinical neuropsychologist, primarily specializing in neuropsychological evaluation of children and young adults. I have extensive experience working with individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., learning disorders, AD/HD), traumatic brain injury/concussion, epilepsy, emotional difficulties, and other complex medical conditions. Evaluations identify learning styles, cognitive and emotional strengths, areas of cognitive or learning differences, emotional difficulties, and diagnoses (when appropriate), which allow us to create a plan for treatment or academics and improved psycho-social functioning.

I believe that historical, political, social, and cultural environments influence the way we navigate the world and shape how we relate to others. As a therapist, my intention is to explore these influences alongside areas where you feel stuck or are seeing unhelpful patterns in your life so that new understanding, healing and empowerment can grow. My approach to therapy is based on collaboration, authenticity and genuine connection. I work with teens, adults, couples, am LGBTQIA+ affirming and kink, poly, and sex worker allied. I am specifically passionate about working with young adults through issues of identity and transition.

My work often centers around folks who are experiencing grief or loss, healing from trauma, navigating life transitions, or experiencing relational challenges. My areas of specialty are neurodivergence (autism, ADHD, etc.), gender exploration, and BPD. I also support folks who are dealing with overwhelming anxiety, depression, dissociation, or cPTSD. I am queer-affirming and trans-affirming. I also have familiarity with spiritual and religious trauma. I bring an anti-oppressive, postmodern, and trauma-informed framework into my work. I support individual adults, kids, families, and couples.

Therapy can help you resolve ongoing pain, trauma, or stress, and can also help you develop skills and strategies for managing problematic situations. It can also assist you with self-exploration and growth. Whatever brings you into therapy, you've taken the first step towards empowering yourself to make a positive change. Having the opportunity to work with someone can make a difference and it's important to find someone with the experience and connection to meet your needs. In order to feel empowered to make changes in your life, establishing an authentic, genuine relationship is crucial.

I use EMDR to help adults manage anxiety and heal from trauma. If you’re ready to let go of what’s been burdensome for far too long, I can support you. We can begin by addressing the worry, the over-thinking, and the repeated patterns. You can learn tools to calm the body and quiet the mind. Then we can address the hurtful memories from the past. I work best with clients who are ready to go deep. My experience includes working with difficult childhoods/difficult pasts, multicultural, LGBTQ+, and spiritual issues.

I work with clients experiencing life changes, grief and trauma. My work includes children, adolescents and adults who are suffering loss/trauma and life changing issues. I am a licensed clinical social worker, believing in a strengths based approach. Everyone has strengths to pull from, I can help you find and cultivate those strengths.The relationship between client and counselor is the most important part of this process.

You need to feel heard and understood! Come. The REAL you. Let's sit together and examine the things that occupy your mind, your time. You have decisions to make. You are navigating a rough patch or a transition. You need to improve your relationships, or just remove the barriers that block your potential. I can't wait to sit along side you as we work within YOUR strengths to manage stress and uncover your best self! In the words of Sheree Bliss Tilsley, …”I will walk with you in the darkness as you remember your light.”

I seek to help families, young adults and adults navigate recovery as it relates to substance abuse and mental health issues. If I could have an "ideal client", it would be someone that has never been to a residential facility before and to catch them before it gets to that point. Most often, the people I work with have some substance use history along with mental health issues. Fulfillment, time management, family relationships, communication, harm reduction, abstinence, stability, etc. are often topics that people I work with seek help for.

Life can be complicated, full of change and challenges. Although we have all come up with ways get through these times or cope, sometimes challenges persist, resurface or feel overwhelming. Significant change requires deep personal examination, something difficult to do on our own. Psychotherapy is an effective way to help us understand our behavior and its connection to our inner emotional experience. It helps to resolve common problems that often impact our daily functioning including depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, bereavement, and difficult life phases. Psychotherapy is a supportive process promoting exploration, growth and change.
