I am currently registered as an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (#154870) and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (#19339), under the supervision of Scott Johnson, LMFT (#42955) at Silicon Beach Psychotherapy (https://siliconbeachpsych.com/). I graduated from Antioch University, Los Angeles with a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology . I work with adults, couples, families and adolescents. I work with clients struggling with depression, PTSD, CPTSD, anxiety, eating disorders, experiencing major life transitions, OCD, and substance/process use disorders.
I am passionate about supporting clients who are navigating neurodiversity (Autism, ADHD, OCD), as well as those who support them. I work through a multicultural lens and am LGBTQ+ affirmative. I have been trained in Psychodynamic, Narrative, Internal Family Systems, Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (Trauma Informed and Inference Based), Gestalt, Satir, and Existential theoretical frameworks.
I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Processing (EMDR) therapy. EMDR has been recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a first-choice treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. It is an evidence-based psychotherapy treatment that is based on the belief that negative thoughts, feelings and behaviors are the result of unprocessed memories. EMDR therapy involves using bi-lateral stimulation while simultaneously focusing on spontaneous associations with traumatic images, thoughts, emotions and bodily sensations. It aims to reduce subjective distress and strengthen adaptive beliefs related to the traumatic event. EMDR does NOT involve detailed descriptions of traumatic events, extended exposure, homework or direct challenging of beliefs (PTSD; WHO, 2013) .
About me
I hold additional certifications in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) for Traumatized Children, Psychological First Aid, Trauma Focused CBT, and am a certified Hospice volunteer. I was a guest speaker on panel, "Working with Neurodiverse Populations", Antioch University, 2025.
My Therapeutic Approach
I think most positive outcomes from therapy start with a strong working relationship. Learning about you through the context of your environment, history, and how you view yourself and the world is important to me. I seek to understand your unique way of thinking, feeling, and coping, which involves trust and patience. I am integrative and collaborative, and also direct.
I consider my therapeutic approach to be client-centered and humanistic. I believe in the whole person, harm reduction approach to therapy. I will meet you where you are at, and together we can chip away at old patterns and narratives and gradually gain access to your authentic self.
Appointments
I meet with clients both in person and via telehealth by appointment, typically on a weekly basis. Therapy sessions are 50 minutes, and it is generally helpful to find a regularly scheduled session time each week. I am able to meet with anyone in the state of California who has a stable internet connection and a confidential space during our session time.
Free Phone Consultation
A good fit between a Therapist and a client is essential in order cultivate therapeutic growth. I offer a free 10-minute phone consultation to individuals interested in potentially working with me.

This is also a chance for me to answer any questions you might have about working together. Please feel free to call or email me to schedule a free phone consultation. If I am not the right fit, I'm happy to refer you to someone who might be.
Billing
I am an out of network provider, however many clients are able to submit their superbill to their insurance company for reimbursement. I am happy to provide you with an itemized bill (i.e., a superbill) which lists medical CPT codes and administered services and can be submitted to your insurance to obtain reimbursement for services. There is no guarantee that insurance companies will approve your claim; please contact your insurance directly to find out about your coverage before accessing services.
