SAN FRANCISCO | CALIFORNIA TELEHEALTH

I believe that healing happens in connection—with ourselves, with others, and within a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship.

Individual, Couples, and Teen Therapy

Welcome to my practice.

I’m a psychotherapist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I provide therapy to adults, couples, and teens in California.

My approach is warm, holistic, and collaborative. I work from a client-centered, trauma-informed perspective, integrating relational, psychodynamic, and attachment theories to support meaningful growth. Together, we will explore your emotions, navigate life’s challenges, and uncover the deeper patterns and beliefs that contribute to distress. Our work together will be grounded in trust, empathy, and respect, creating a safe space for healing and transformation.

I support clients with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life transitions, personal growth, low self-esteem, disordered eating and body image, questions of gender and sexuality, complex family dynamics, and grief. My practice is affirming of LGBTQ+ identities, alternative relationship styles, and kink communities.

I deeply believe in the power of therapy. Through both personal experience and my work with clients, I have seen the growth that can emerge from a safe, compassionate space for exploration and healing. It is a privilege to help the people who come to see me.
