Proving therapy to adults and adolescents in Berkeley both in person and online.

Conversational and collaborative

Therapy is best when it is conversational and collaborative. Every individual deserves a place to process their issues and struggles in a safe space.

I practice an intersectional and client-centered approach. I rely on humor and insight to create a therapeutic relationship with my clients.

When we are able to trust, we can be vulnerable and accepting of ourselves and our imperfections.

This empowers us to evolve. Understanding ourselves helps us adapt and move towards our own happiness and balance.

As a woman of color, I work to support a diverse group of individuals.

I focus therapy on the solutions that fit with your values.

I help adults and adolescents:

• Manage anxiety and depression
• Build supportive relationships
• Live in a way that aligns with your values

Areas of practice: POC, LGBTQ and first-generation immigrants
Relationships: processing relational partnership dynamics, dating and mating, making peace with families of origin
Parenting: parent-child dynamics, difficult pregnancy, post-partum transitions, parenting medically fragile and special-needs children
Wellness: recovery from health issues, addressing compassion fatigue and burnout in the workplace, reduction and management of stress

I provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.
