​Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist #147764

​

Born and raised in the vibrant city of Los Angeles, my life’s journey has been marked by navigating through unpredictable challenges and overcoming personal struggles. Along the way, I came face to face with fears previously unknown to me, experienced a sense of disconnection, and recognized the invaluable need for support. This pivotal moment led me to embark on my therapeutic path, igniting a profound passion and dedication to assisting others, as I once was supported.

Through the transformative power of collaborative therapy, my life took a new course, sparking a deep-seated passion for Psychotherapy and propelling me toward the clinician I am today. The impact of engaging in collaborative and

interactive therapy practices has honed my skills and abilities, making me a highly resourceful, flexible,

innovative, and an enthusiastic therapist!

Life presents us all with unexpected challenges, and I understand the importance of individual

journeys in navigating these hurdles. I early anticipate the opportunity to learn about your

lived experiences and extend my support to you in your journey of healing and growth.

Your well-being is my utmost priority, and it would be a privilege to be a part of

your therapeutic process.
