With advanced training in trauma recovery, somatic therapy, and attachment-based work, I've spent decades supporting Individuals who carry the weight of painful experiences. My approach is both evidence-based and deeply human, drawing from neuroscience, mindfulness, and your innate ability to heal. Together we will create a plan that gives you hope again.

I am casual, compassionate, and never judgmental. I believe therapy should never feel like an appointment, but instead your weekly self care. I may be a stranger the first few times that we meet, but over time I become a fundamental part of your support system. Your ability to heal lies in the connection you feel with your therapist, so find that connection.

As someone who has walked the dark path of trauma myself, I promise that there is light in your future. Let's break the cycle and heal attachment wounds that have plagued you and your relationships. I am here every step of the way. So, just show up ready to leave the darkness behind, and my job is take you forward. We work as a team to ensure you progress.

Therapy should be your place of healing and your weekly self-care. We will process your trauma, so there may be difficult times. But, you are in experienced hands and we will breathe through it together. Don't suffer alone, you can heal and grow. I provide sessions both online and in-person in my San Francisco office (in the Castro District.
