I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy/Emphasis in School Counseling from San Francisco State University. With nine years of experience in the mental health field, I have worked extensively with individuals, groups, and families, providing therapeutic support across various settings. My background includes providing school-based mental health services to children and adolescents (ages 6 to 18), collaborating with parents and families, working individually with adults, and facilitating trauma-focused process groups.

 

I view counseling as a unique healing experience—one that allows individuals to be truly seen and witnessed in a safe and supportive space. My approach is anchored in unconditional positive regard, ensuring that clients feel accepted and valued as they explore their thoughts and emotions. Through this process, clients can deepen their understanding of their internal world, make sense of their experiences, and move toward healing and growth.
