To the big feelers, deep thinkers, empaths & artists
Free-spirited, sensitive-souled yogis and mystics
Coffee drinking, high-achieving, working 9-5ers
To anyone craving greater fulfillment, deeper meaning, & more peace
And everyone in-between…
I’m so happy you’re here.
As a child with big feelings and deep thoughts, I was often called:
too sensitive.
This early message knocked my confidence and sense of self. As a result, I experienced low relationship and career satisfaction. Before becoming a therapist, I spent almost a decade producing marketing campaigns for brands. A high-achieving people pleaser, I was successful and yet totally burnt out. I felt disillusioned by adulthood and my corporate life. I needed a change but didn’t know where to start.
Yoga, meditation, & mindfulness sparked change in me.
For the first time in a long time, I experienced glimpses of peace. I sank deeper into these practices and eventually, those small glimpses of peace became more frequent and expansive. I turned the sensitivity and spirituality that had been labeled faults inward and they became my greatest strengths and allies on my healing journey. During this time, I also worked with amazing clinicians to process my past, present, and future.
These healing practices and therapeutic relationships were transformative, but they weren’t enough. There was still pain lingering within me. It wasn’t until I stepped into my power and took the reins as the author of my story that I found the internal and external harmony I had been craving. My healing journey through western and eastern modalities, and the awakening to my own role within them, inspired my mission to be a conduit for other humans to find sovereignty, peace, and joy in their lives.
Becoming.
I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from University of California, Santa Barbara and my Master of Social Work from University of Southern California. In my degree programs, my concentrations were positive psychology, wellness, education, sexual and reproductive health, LGBTQIA+ advocacy and affirmative care, specifically within adolescents and young adults. I’m a certified yoga and meditation teacher registered with Yoga Alliance (RYT-200) and have extra training in guiding yoga nidra and kid’s yoga.
I began working in clinical settings with individuals from diverse backgrounds, identities, and orientations in 2021. I’m now an Associate Clinical Social Worker (#114126) on the path to independent licensure. I integrate modalities including CBT, DBT, IFS, and EMDR with somatic approaches to help people experiencing depression, anxiety, and trauma-related challenges, especially within their identity, relationships, and career. I work with individuals and couples, specifically Gen-Z and Millennials.
I believe you are a powerful, radiant being.
.
I offer a holistic, humanistic approach to therapy based on my enduring belief in your unlimited potential and inherent worth and my trust in your inner compass. I integrate trauma-informed neuroscience, somatic tools, and yogic teachings to meet you where you’re at in your healing journey. I invite you to show up exactly as you are: messy, scared, hurting, beautiful. My intention is to create a safe and warm space for you to fully land.
It’s my honor to witness your vulnerability as we explore how early childhood wounds, core beliefs, and patterned behavior have influenced your current reality. I will guide you into the infinite wisdom of your body and mind by offering reflections and inquiries that help you access your intuition and reclaim your power. You will gain the insights and tools you need to catalyze sustainable, long-lasting change in your life and return to your radiance. I’m so excited to welcome you as you are and support you in reaching your highest potential.
Between sessions.
When I’m not connecting with clients, practicing mindfulness, or learning emerging healing modalities, I spend time with my rescue dog, Rumi (mostly called Roo or Rufus), I read everything from psychology and wellness to sci-fi and fantasy books, do reformer Pilates, and love an iced espresso drink… or two.
