I am a licensed psychotherapist in California. I have experience helping individuals, couples, and families with various relationship difficulties, life transitions, depression, anxiety, trauma, and loss. I use DBT, CBT, IFS, and ACT approaches as well as somatic and mindfulness exercises to increase awareness, create adaptive patterns, and improve interpersonal skills. I am also a registered yoga instructor and meditation teacher and integrate movement and meditation to increase presence with mind, body, and core essence when applicable.
I use a holistic approach when working with clients and collaborate with them to determine what skills and resources will help them meet their goals. I provide psychoeducation and assign homework to clients. I also elicit feedback from clients in regard to the homework assigned in order to determine what is working and what may need modification.
I honor the experiences and stories my clients share with me and meet them where they are. I am committed to clients on their journey as they develop increased awareness and skills, improve relationships and functioning, and develop a deeper understanding and appreciation for their true essence.
