Thank you for making yourself a priority, for choosing to accept the help and guidance through your therapeutic journey.
Hello, I am a Licensed Clinic Social Worker in the state of California. My approach to therapy is grounded in compassion, empathy, and authenticity as a clinician. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotions with curiosity, build resilience, and find effective methods of stress reduction to manage life's hurdles now and in the future.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals who struggle with mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as those navigating the complexities of substance use disorders. I understand how these issues can intertwine and impact daily life, and I am deeply committed to providing the support and tools necessary for healing and growth.
I am deeply passionate about supporting individuals through the unique emotional and psychological challenges of pregnancy, the postpartum period, and early parenthood. My practice focuses on helping clients navigate the complexities of adjusting to new motherhood, managing the waves of the pregnancy journey and overcoming the profound hurdles that can arise during the postpartum phase.
I personally understand the journey to parenthood and how this can be filled with joy and anticipation as well as fear, overwhelm and isolation at times.
Whether you are experiencing prenatal anxiety, postpartum depression, or struggling with the overwhelming changes in identity as you emerge to the Mother role~ I offer a loving, nurturing and supportive space to let you feel and process your journey in motherhood.
Additional areas of focus: Body image, Drug and alcohol addiction, Eating and food-related issues, Postpartum depression, Self-love, Young adult issues
