Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
As a licensed Psychologist in California and a formally certified EMDR trauma therapist, I bring 12 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate emotional landscapes, with specialized expertise in the treatment of trauma, depression, anxiety, stress management, and personal growth.
I offer a compassionate, affirming approach that honors each person’s unique journey. My work focuses on addressing diverse experiences including communication challenges, life transitions, self-esteem, isolation, workplace dynamics, and interpersonal relationships.
My therapeutic approach is collaborative and person-centered, designed to help you develop deeper self-understanding, build resilience, and create meaningful personal transformation. I believe in creating a supportive environment where you can explore your experiences, heal from past challenges, and develop stronger, more authentic connections with yourself and others.
I am particularly passionate about utilizing evidence based psychotherapeutic techniques like CBT, EMDR and ISTDP in my practice with a goal of moving you towards achieving your therapeutic goals. As a formally certified EMDR therapist, I use the EMDR protocol—a powerful tool that incorporates bilateral stimulation (e.g., eye movements)—to help the mind effectively reprocess and heal from traumatic memories.
Whether you’re struggling with personal growth, relationship dynamics, or navigating complex emotional terrain, I’m here to support you with warmth, empathy, respect, and professional guidance.
