- LMFT
I am licensed in California with 18 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with grief and loss, depression, coping with life changes, & executive and professional coaching. I have lots of experience supporting people who live with neurodiversity, like ADD/ADHD and autism. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I take this work seriously and know the work can be hard, but also believe therapy can be fun.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
