Education has always fueled my passion for understanding human behavior and for fostering meaningful change. My credentials include:

• Associate of Arts in Social and Behavioral Sciences from Pierce College

• Bachelor of Arts in Human Development from Antioch University

• Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute (specializing in Marriage and Family Therapy, Professional Clinical Counseling, and Depth Psychology)

Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with individuals experiencing co-occurring disorders, disordered eating, suicidal ideation, psychosis, and risky or compulsive behaviors.

I have also supported clients navigating medication adherence, family dynamics, and identity development.

I always consider the larger systems that shape a person’s inner and outer world, recognizing that we are not shaped in isolation, but in relationship to our environments, histories, and communities.

While professional credentials matter, therapy is ultimately about connection. I aim to bring intelligence, attunement, and grounded presence into the room. Healing occurs in a safe space where you can speak your truth.

Whether you are seeking support for grief, addiction, depression, or navigating difficult emotions and patterns, I am here to help you “navigate the space between.”

Together, we can work through painful chapters, rediscover hope, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and whole.
