Welcome. It can be hard to take the first step in seeking support but I aim to make this easy and safe. For the past decade I have worked with clients who are searching for hope, fresh insights, relief or all of the above. 

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW83870) passionate about working with individuals on their journey towards making peace with the past, feeling empowered in the present and clear in their ability to make choices for the future.

Every person is unique which is why I think therapy should also be so. Together we will create a tailored plan that honors your own experiences, values and long term hopes and goals. 

I believe firmly in the power of relationships to heal and think you deserve a therapist that will create a safe and collaborative space free of judgement. Here we can speak the unspeakable.

I am currently based out of Pasadena, but can provide services virtually throughout the state of California and Oregon. 

your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
and the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
your life is your life.
know it while you have it.
you are marvelous
the gods wait to delight
in you.
