I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #132566 practicing both in-person therapy in Los Angeles and virtual therapy across the great state of California.

My work is grounded in liberation psychology, the decolonization of some traditional therapy , and intersectional feminist teachings, all through a trauma-informed lens. When you’re in the room with me, you’re in a room where your lived experience is believed and honored.

My therapeutic approach is relational, and rooted in the psychodynamic and person-centered approach. I'm also informed in IFS (internal family systems), dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and I have robust training and experience in the ERP (exposure and response prevention) modality for OCD and anxiety disorders.

I have almost 10 years of experience doing therapy with individuals from all types of cultures, ethnicities, and socioeconomic statuses, and I’ve supported children, adolescents, and adults, including older adults. I’ve even done non-therapy roles such as case management for a health insurance plan (!). Today, I work full-time at a company fully dedicated to supporting people with OCD, while also maintaining this here private practice.

I am truly no different from the clients I see. Like everyone else, I'm human. I've been through both wonderful and difficult experiences that have shaped who I am and how I support my clients. I am honored to have the opportunity to support you.
