As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe healing happens through connection, compassion, and understanding. I partner with clients to explore patterns, build coping skills, and develop greater self-awareness in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, confident, and aligned with their values.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years in the field of social work. I have a wealthy portfolio of experiences working with individuals from diverse backgrounds.

In our life, it's natural to encounter deep-seated questions, concerns and sometimes struggle. I have been a practicing psychotherapist for over 20 years and specialize in helping clients navigate a variety of issues. This includes, but is not limited to strategies for managing anxiety, reducing rumination, and coping with feelings of being overwhelmed or depressed.

Have you ever left a therapy session feeling lighter, only to return the next week feeling right back where you started?

You’ve done the work. You’ve learned the tools and the language to describe your thoughts, feelings, and patterns. Yet the relief often feels short-lived. Insights help in the moment, but they don’t always translate into lasting change in your day-to-day life.

It can feel incredibly frustrating or even hopeless. You might start wondering if therapy is even worth it.

Deep down, you just want to feel less anxious... less stressed... less burned out. You want to feel like yourself again. You want to feel truly connected to others. And you want to stop feeling like a hamster stuck on a wheel, running endlessly with no off-ramp.

If that sounds like you, you’re not alone. With nearly 20 years of working with caregivers, helping professionals, and many others seeking relief. I have witnessed these same struggles time after time. The frustration, the exhaustion, and for many, a deep and unshakable pain that feels like it never ends. The work doesn’t stop, and yet, things go nowhere.

Through my clients, I’ve learned that what usually brings people to therapy is often just the surface symptom of deeply held core beliefs and personal stories that once served them well but now keep them stuck and, at times, repeating a vicious cycle.

Therapy should feel safe, even when it stretches you beyond your comfort zone. If you’re tired of taking three steps forward only to slide two steps back, and you’re ready to step off the hamster wheel, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward genuine healing and self-discovery.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 25 years of experience providing compassionate, trauma-informed care across diverse clinical settings. Licensed in both California and Oregon, my career has been dedicated to supporting individuals and families navigating complex life challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, addictions, relational difficulties and serious mental illnesses. My background is uniquely broad, ranging from mental health facilities–both inpatient and outpatient–to medical social work and home health. I have extensive experience working with my own and other Tribal communities in rural Alaska, California, and Oregon, providing culturally relevant psychotherapy and advocacy.

Prior to earning my Master of Social Work in 2000, my foundational mental health experience spanned intensive inpatient, outpatient, day treatment, and residential mental health programs.

As a social worker, I understand individuals, families, tribes, and communities as both composed of, and embedded within complex systems. I work to help clients plan for and adapt to change, striving to offer a safe, supportive environment in which clients will not just experience relief, but become their best selves ready to flourish in a welcoming future.

I support clients with varying ages and tailor a unique approach for each individual.

Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Art Therapist. I received my Masters from Loyola Marymount University and have been practicing for 6 years.

Together, we focus on building practical skills, increasing self-awareness, and creating meaningful, lasting change.
