About My Clients
I work best with high-achieving professionals and couples who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected despite outward success. My clients often struggle with perfectionism, burnout, relationship stress, or a sense that something’s missing. I provide a warm, grounded space to explore what’s beneath the surface, helping clients reconnect with themselves, reduce emotional overwhelm, and feel more aligned in their lives and relationships.
My Background and Approach
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from California Lutheran University. I’ve worked in private practice and community mental health, which has given me a deep understanding of how stress, trauma, and relationships impact our inner world. I specialize in working with high-achieving professionals and couples who are struggling with anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, and emotional disconnection. My approach integrates Internal Family Systems, psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive behavioral tools to explore the deeper roots of what’s going on beneath the surface. I don’t believe in “quick fixes,” but I do believe in meaningful, sustainable growth. Therapy with me is collaborative, grounded, and tailored to your pace. Whether you’re navigating personal transitions, relationship tension, or simply feeling stuck, our work will help you find clarity, balance, and a renewed connection to yourself and others.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a therapist and human, I deeply value authenticity, compassion, and holding space for complexity. I believe healing happens when we feel truly seen—not just for the roles we play, but for who we are beneath them. I’m passionate about helping people unlearn internalized messages about worth, success, and identity, especially those shaped by family, culture, or high-performance environments. I work with high-achieving and high net worth individuals who are often balancing demanding careers, public roles, or the quiet pressure to always be “on.” I believe that therapy should be a space where you can step away from performance and reconnect with yourself—not just as a professional, partner, or provider, but as a whole human being. Many of the clients I work with are navigating private challenges behind a very public or high-functioning life. I bring warmth, insight, and grounded presence to help create space for reflection, clarity, and meaningful change.
