About Me

It is tender to entrust another person with your inner world and lived experiences. As a relational therapist, I welcome your openness with curiosity about who you are, who you want to become, and the systems that shape that journey.

My style is authentic, warm, and collaborative— I show up in the room as a whole person, quirks and all, to collaborate with you on creating a more meaningful life and richer relationships. Together we will cultivate a liberatory space where all parts of you may be witnessed and tended; a space where you can move closer towards your values and authenticity.

It is a unique privilege to support individuals and partners in what are often the most tender and transformative moments of their lives and their relationships. Within our work together, I hold these moments with deep care and understanding, while also infusing humor and playfulness when appropriate. There is room for all layers of yourself and your experiences within this space.

I see clients in-person in a cozy cottage in Pasadena, California, and virtually throughout the state—with my dog and co-counselor, Bacon, often on my lap.

If you have felt any resonance while reading, I invite you to reach out. 

Meet my co-counselor, Bacon, who is on my lap for all virtual sessions. He loves hiking, peanut butter, and snoring during meaningful conversations.
