I have always been interested in people and their stories. This curiosity, a desire to help facilitate change in the world and my own beneficial experiences in therapy brought me to this work. I try and carry warmth, care, patience, humor and understanding to those I am privileged to work with.

I began my education in this field at Antioch University where I earned an MA in Clinical Psychology with a Specialization in LGBTQ+ Affirmative therapy. Following that, I trained at the Southern California Counseling Center where I saw individuals and couples, as well as children through a school-based program. I also completed their Trauma Specialization program where I was trained in Attachment-Focused EMDR and the Community Resiliency Model.

I am passionate about what I do and work with a diverse range of people. This includes members of the Queer community, gay men, artists and creatives, entertainment professionals and members of recovery programs such as SLAA and Al-Anon.
