How I Help Best

Perinatal Mental Health

From your experiences with pregnancy, postpartum, and the journey of matrescence, I support women in navigating the emotional and psychological shifts of becoming a parent. Together, we honor each stage and help you integrate these changes into your sense of self.

Women’s Issues

Therapy for women at any stage of life, focusing on identity, self-compassion, relationships and navigating the many roles you hold. This work creates space to explore who you are, what you need, and how to show up authentically in your life

Young Adults + Life Transitions

Support for those in their twenties and thirties facing independence, relationships, career development, and personal growth. We work together to build confidence, clarity, and resilience as you step into your next chapter.

About Me

As a Southern California native, I’ve called Orange County home my entire life. My journey toward becoming a therapist began during my time at Chapman University, where I nurtured my curiosity about the human experience as a psychology major. After taking a year off to recharge and do some soul searching, I landed on pursuing a master’s degree in counseling, knowing I wanted to help others through becoming a marriage and family therapist. Since then, I’ve worked in both community clinics and private practice, where my work has evolved to center women in seasons of transition, particularly around pregnancy, postpartum, and the profound identity shifts that come with becoming a mother. I’ve completed training in perinatal mental health, which continues to inform my work supporting clients through matrescence, family transitions, and the emotional complexity of parenthood.
