"I became a therapist to help others, inspired by a deep belief in the transformative power of connection."
Growing up in Oregon, I developed a deep appreciation for nature and the importance of a holistic approach to healing, where mind, body, and environment are interconnected.
My career in creative operations within the advertising and architecture industries has equipped me with a unique, blended systems perspective that I bring to my therapy practice. This experience enhances my ability to approach each client’s needs with structure, creativity and empathy.
I earned my Master of Arts in Psychology here in California. Where my practicum was with those living with neurocognitive disorders like dementia and Alzheimer’s. Our memories are such a core component of our identities. The exposure to aging, death, grief and loss helped build my compassion for the human experience. Also, caregiving whether child, partner or parent is challenging and I offer support.
I am interested in neuroscience how the brain and body specifically the nervous system work in response to stress and trauma. I’ve committed myself to continuously learning more to help others in their own natural capacity to heal.
As a trauma therapist in West LA and online in the state of California. I offer therapy to individuals, couples, children 10+, teens and families. I like to bring in EMDR therapy to help metabolize and integrate that which is causing emotional distress.
Personally, I’m a proud of my journey. I am mother to an energetic five-year-old son who has taught me so much. A wife to my French-American husband who has partnered with me to create a relationship built on mutual respect, love and shared growth. We live by the beach with our always hungry and fierce tabby cat. We routinely enjoy the tranquil beauty of the nearby desert and mountains.
I approach therapy with a mindset of connection, collaboration, and growth. I’m here to support you in fostering change, emotional well-being, and a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships.
