As your therapist I can guide you towards improving your mood and relationships as well as strengthening your copings skills and problem solving abilities so that what once felt unmanageable is now manageable.

Hellohihey! Whether it’s your first time in therapy or have been looking for a new therapist, welcome! I thank you and applaud you for taking steps to help yourself in your mental health journey. Seeking help and talking about some of our deepest and most difficult moments can be really challenging, and I want to be able to support you in navigating through it all.

I like to take a more client-centered and strengths-based approach; wherever you are in your journey, I’m here to help support and walk alongside you. I try not to assume anything when it comes to your story; you are the writer of your narrative and I’m here to help with what you feel is important or necessary. I am open and willing to help many different populations and demographics. I have a background in early intervention and prevention, and I like working with teens and college-aged adults, especially to help navigate that transitional stage in adolescence and young adulthood. I primarily use techniques including CBT, DBT, and brainspotting in my treatment interventions.

Hi. Thanks for taking the time to consider working with me as your therapist. I realize the importance of choosing the right person for this trusted role. I hope that the following videos will give you a sense of me and how I might help you. Some things that distinguish me and my work include the level of training I have received, my years of experience, the variety of strategies that I am competent to use, but also my own personal qualities of warmth, compassion, genuineness, and care. I am proud to have dedicated years to developing proficiency as a Psychologist. I am both a California Licensed Psychologist as well as a Singapore Registered Psychologist. In addition to earning a Ph.D. from the APA Accredited Counseling Psychology Training Program at the University of Texas at Austin, I also hold a Masters Degree in Developmental Psychology from Teachers College, Columbia University. As part of my Ph.D. program I successfully completed the APA Approved Predoctoral Psychology Internship at the Jerry L. Pettis Memorial VA Medical Center in Loma Linda. I then went on to hold a variety of positions in both governmental and private sector settings before eventually building my own private practice. These years of experience have allowed me to develop a range of skills and competencies which I am able to draw upon. I am now providing therapy exclusively online for adults, adolescents, couples and families. I do this through a secure online platform which is easy for clients to use. Because I am a California Licensed Psychologist these services are eligible for reimbursement through PPO insurance on an Out-of-Network basis. All necessary documentation for insurance submission are provided to clients though a secure online portal. I offer free online consultations which would give us a chance to explore what what changes you would like to make and how I might be of assistance. I also hope that the following video clips will provide a better sense of me and my approach. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have and/or to schedule a free online consultation. I will hope to hear from you.

I believe that therapy is a space where you can be yourself, and I would love to be a part of helping you to explore your life in a meaningful way. Coming from a creative background, I decided to become a therapist to engage more deeply with the human experience, both intellectually and emotionally.  My work is centered around helping people grow into the fullest version of themselves—one that feels more authentic, more alive, more aware, and more at peace. Above all, I believe that real healing comes from the unique relationship we build together. Therapy works when you feel deeply seen, heard, and cared for, and that is what I strive to provide in every session. Together, we will work to explore your past, understand how it shapes your present and current relationships, and create a path toward a more meaningful and fulfilling now and future. My approach is rooted in empathy, curiosity, and respect, and I welcome clients from all walks of life. I also am LGBTQIA+ affirmative, culturally-sensitive, and sex-positive, so please bring yourself however you are.
