Nice to meet you
I work with individuals navigating mood disorders—including anxiety, depression, grief, and stress—as well as trauma, PTSD, and complex trauma. I aim to create an empathic space while incorporating humor and flexibility to meet you where you are. My style is collaborative and adaptive; I tend to mirror your energy and needs, and will offer a direct push when it feels right. Therapy is about finding comfort and growth, and I’m here to support you through both.

Interests
Travel and rescue dogs! I have been to all 7 continents and not nearly enough countries and cities in the world. It's what I am passionate about and it's what gets me excited. I also love paddle boarding, scuba diving and hiking. I volunteer for a local dog rescue group and have fostered over 30 dogs here in San Diego. I love going to adoption events and foster events and seeing the community get together for the common good.
