Through empathetic support, my goal is to provide a caring and thoughtful customized approach that fosters healing and supports your emotional needs. I work with clients to build healthier coping skills, strengthen self-worth, cultivate more harmonious relationships, and become more grounded in the present moment.
I am collaborative, practical, and evidence-informed. We'll define goals together and adjust as we go. I utilize various modalities and approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Talk Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and other modalities as needed. I have completed the MPE Aspects 101 Course, Level 1 Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and have received training in Brainspotting and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
I offer sessions in Redwood City or virtually to anyone within California.
After navigating a challenging family experience, I developed a deep interest in supporting others facing similar struggles. As I explored the psychological principles behind healing and found a sense of peace for myself, I became inspired to help others discover that same sense of calm and resilience.
With over 20 years of experience analyzing complex problems and finding solutions in the business world, I bring both an analytical mindset and a deep sense of empathy to my work. Returning to school to earn my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Golden Gate University allowed me to combine these strengths to support individuals and families in meaningful ways. My work began in community settings, where I supported individuals and couples through a non-profit and helped adolescents navigate challenges through school-based counseling.
