I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 28 years of experience in the mental health field.

I am known for my patient, compassionate, and attentive approach, and I strive to be fully engaged and present with every client I serve.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person

17621 Irvine Boulevard, Tustin, CA

I specialize in working with adults experiencing burnout, chronic stress/anxiety, trauma, and neurodivergence. As a neurodivergent therapist who has navigated my own experiences with burnout, I understand how exhausting it can be to constantly feel "on" for everyone else. I’m especially passionate about supporting helping professionals, caregivers, and high-achieving folks who spend so much energy caring for others that they forget to care for themselves. I also bring my full personality into the therapy room (including humor, authenticity, and the occasional slightly twisted joke) when the moment calls for it.

Therapist

I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families to navigate the challenges related to anxiety, depression, communication, and relationship dynamics. Mental health influences every part of our lives—how we think, feel, and connect with others. When something feels off, it can ripple through our well-being and relationships. Therapy offers the space to identify what’s not working and develop tools for balance, clarity, and lasting change through an engaging and supportive process.

People pleasing is part of your nature...You are dedicated to “getting it right”. You work so hard - in your job or school, your relationships - but it never seems to be enough. You are exhausted. You feel defeated. And despite all efforts, things are still falling apart. The areas of your life that you can’t fully control - a relationship, your job, a circumstance or negative event, a life transition- leave you feeling overwhelmed and anxious. You are ready to feel confident and free from constant worry. You are willing to give therapy another chance... with the right person. I believe that I am that person.

I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), person centered and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) among various other therapy styles, to equip you with evidence-based tools to quickly reduce your anxiety, improve mood, and build confidence.
