Do you desire a meaningful relationship with yourself and others? Are life challenges impacting your quality of life? If so, you are not alone and therapy can provide you with the guidance and support needed to move toward mental, physical, and emotional balance for a healthier more successful life. I believe creating a strong therapeutic relationship is of paramount importance in the process of change and a key ingredient towards your progress in therapy. While being supportive, I’ll also challenge you to acknowledge and confront unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviors that are interfering with your personal goals.

I provide multiculturally-sensitive therapy for diverse individual adults, couples, and families. I have extensive experience with a wide range of psychological and psychosocial concerns including depression and anxiety, romantic relationship satisfaction, men's issues, family and relationship conflicts, grief and loss, and life transitions.

I am currently a full time Senior Staff Psychologist at UC-Irvine and actively involved within the American Psychological Association (board member for Div. 43). My professional engagements also include various leadership positions, consultations, teaching and supervision, training, and mentorship. Evenings & Weekends Hours, and same day appt. Available.
