I know what it is like to crave connection and fear it at the same time. Through my own therapy, I learned how to heal, how to trust, and how to feel safe with myself, and create stability, safety, and trust in my relationships. My life experiences are what lead me to become the Therapist I am today.

Helping People Is A Gift To Others, But Also Myself

Being a Therapist is an honor. I love experiencing healing and transformation through deep, meaningful relationship and genuine connection and watching them transform their lives. The most rewarding thing about being a Therapist is seeing a person walk away lighter, more free, and excited about their life. I am committed to encouraging you to see healing and transformation.

I Have Compassion For People And Bring Warmth And Understanding To Sessions…With A Bit of Humor And A Lot Of Realness.

I have a natural ability to:

• Understand people’s experiences
• Help people identify what they are feeling
• Accept people for who they are and in their current life circumstances
• Help clients heal their past and manage the present
• People who know me often say that I am a good listener who can help people feel heard and understood which helps people feel seen and start to heal.

I received my PsyD from Azusa Pacific University in Azusa, CA. I hold a doctorate in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Forensic Psychology. I have training and experience in acute psychiatric care, correctional facilities, forensic hospitals, and trauma clinics. I managed outpatient substance abuse treatment facilities for several years, and created an integrative practice for co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders.
