Education & Experience

I hold a Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California and an MBA from Pepperdine University, integrating clinical depth with a systems-level understanding of stress, leadership, and change. In addition to private practice, I serve in a leadership role at UCLA, where I help shape access to mental health care and have trained staff in trauma-responsive practices. My experience across community, academic, and organizational settings informs a therapy style that is both attuned and intentional—grounded in relational safety and informed by evidence-based care. I have advanced training in EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, and trauma-informed yoga. Our sessions are paced for depth and integration—supporting high-achieving nervous systems in learning to slow down, release, and reconnect.
