Welcome! I am Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California with over 5 years of professional experience helping clients overcome a variety of life challenges. Areas of specialty include stress reduction, anxiety, trauma, self confidence, grief and loss, life transitions and relationship issues.
My therapeutic style is warm and compassionate. Although therapy is serious business, I bring humor into sessions when appropriate.
My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, attachment focused and trauma informed models of therapy. I tailor my sessions to meet each client’s individual needs.
I consider my clients to be the experts of their life stories. My job is to assist them in connecting to their strengths and resiliency while navigating their life challenges.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
