With 12+ years of experience as a therapist, I use a multi-pronged approach towards healing with my clients. I don't believe in a one-size fits all method as we all have different needs and desires for ourselves. I do this work with passion from my own self-exploration and processing through my own rock bottom.

- Online Therapy Details: I use secure online platforms to offer online therapy.
My practice supports millennials who are tired of overthinking their relationships and ready to feel secure, grounded, and confident in who they are. I work with individuals who are highly self-aware but still feel stuck—struggling with relationship anxiety, people-pleasing, guilt, and the fear of being “too much” or “not enough.” Using a blend of trauma-informed therapy, EMDR, and coaching tools, I help clients break free from shame and self-doubt so they can communicate their needs, set boundaries, and form healthy, connected relationships. This is a space for real, lasting change—where emotional healing meets practical support.
I offer online therapy for individuals across California & Utah and coaching for clients nationwide. Whether you're in Los Angeles, San Francisco, or anywhere in between, this is a space for real, lasting change—where emotional healing meets practical support.
