About Me

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist , offering in person and virtual sessions for residents of California and virtual sessions for residents of Oregon. I primarily treat adults with a history of childhood trauma. I also help those with chronic pain and those going through IVF treatment. My philosophy is very much centered on the idea that trauma can and is stored in the body. Much can be processed somatically, without having to share too much of your experience, through EMDR Therapy. I am LGBTQIA + and BIPOC allied. I look forward to helping you heal!
