If you or your family are navigating anxiety, trauma, stress, or a difficult life transition, you don’t have to walk through it alone. For over ten years, I’ve worked as a crisis counselor and child advocate, helping individuals from all walks of life find healing, growth, and meaningful connection. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in a deep respect for your unique journey.
In addition to my clinical practice, I am a passionate educator and researcher. I hold a Psy.D. (Summa Cum Laude) from California Southern University, an M.S. from Arizona State University, and specialized certifications in Child Advocacy and Applied Behavior Analysis. My research on social issues has supported institutions in Washington, D.C., and I regularly present workshops on mental health and leadership.

What should a new client know about working with you?
Therapy with me is a true partnership where we will work together to explore what you’re experiencing, clarify where you want to go, and map out a practical path to get you there. My goal is to create a safe, affirming, and stigma-free space where you feel genuinely supported and empowered to heal and grow. I tailor my approach to your unique needs, frequently utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help you understand the powerful connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. In my practice, I specialize in helping individuals and families navigate anxiety and stress management, trauma recovery, special needs support, and major life transitions, guiding you to find calm, reclaim your present, and face life's changes with confidence and clarity.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
In our initial session, we will focus on understanding your unique story. Together, we will discuss your background, what brings you to therapy, and any patterns or past experiences that may be influencing your current challenges. From there, our subsequent sessions will be tailored entirely to your evolving needs and goals, always moving at a pace that feels safe and comfortable for you. In our work together, I strive to strike a meaningful balance between unwavering clinical support and gentle guidance—offering the encouragement and perspective needed to help you safely step outside your comfort zone and move forward.
