Therapy

I am CA-based, with a Doctorate in Psychology, licensed in Clinical Social Work, and experienced in neuropsychology. I am neurodiversity-affirming and work with cultural humility. I approach therapy as a relational, ethical, and healing practice grounded in client's autonomy, nervous system safety, and self-defined goals. My primary responsibility is to support regulation, meaning-making, and agency. I view the therapy room as a protected space where clients are met with curiosity, invitation, and deep respect for human complexity. Areas of expertise include trauma, neurodivergence, anxiety, and depression.
