I am a transgender neurodivergent Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist combining evidence-based therapeutic practices with real-world application, placing your voice and experience at the forefront of therapy. 

I invite you to share who you are and your experiences in a safe and collaborative space.

Through this, I am able to provide plans and interventions tailored to who you are, in conjunction with your feedback.

My approach is rooted in an affirming, anti-racist, social justice lens and combines narrative therapy, mindfulness, family systems, and cognitive interventions, among other perspectives.

I enjoy incorporating mindfulness, grounding, and somatic work into therapy sessions.

I am from and based in Orange County, CA and my sign is Pisces. Outside of my passion for mental health, I enjoy running, gardening, reading, and podcasts.
