Hello! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT#135855) dedicated to providing compassionate mental health services via telehealth for individuals and families. My Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy underpins an approach that is always empathetic, collaborative, and uniquely tailored to your specific needs.

Before joining BACA, I spent several years as a community-based therapist in San Bernardino County, supporting children, adolescents, and young adults. This experience involved providing crisis management, individual therapy, and in-home and school-based family and collateral support. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of assisting clients navigating challenges such as depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, grief/loss, parent-child conflict, and relationship difficulties. I specialize in helping individuals and families develop effective strategies to manage stress and navigate challenging times.

I integrate a variety of evidence-based models into my practice, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Strength-Based, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. My primary goal is to create a therapeutic space where you feel comfortable, safe, and profoundly supported.

Outside of my practice, I enjoy unwinding at the beach, cherishing time with family and friends, exploring new places through travel, and discovering delightful new restaurants.
