Essence

Sometimes life becomes difficult to manage on your own. You may be dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, substance use, or simply feeling stuck and unsure of what needs to change. Therapy can give you the space to talk honestly about what is happening, better understand yourself, and begin making changes that feel realistic for your life.

At Essence, I want you to feel comfortable showing up as yourself. I take a collaborative and individualized approach to therapy, which means we will work together to understand what you are experiencing and determine what will be most helpful for you. I will support you without judgment, while also gently challenging you when it may help you recognize patterns, consider a different perspective, or move toward the changes you want to make.

Finding the right therapist matters. I believe therapy works best when you feel understood, respected, and able to be honest, even when the work feels uncomfortable. My role is not to tell you how to live your life, but to help you better understand yourself, build on your strengths, and make choices that feel meaningful to you.

I currently provide secure telehealth therapy for adolescents and adults throughout California.
