Helping Adults Teens and Couples Heal and Rebuild Connection

 

Instead of feeling overpowered by doubt and disappointment, imagine feeling confident and proud of the person in the mirror.
Instead of feeling isolated or dismissed, imagine connection and trust with the people who matter most.

A Private Practice Rooted in Care and Community

I’m proud to call Orange County my home and built my private practice in Tustin because I love the area, the people, and the families. People come to counseling for many reasons, from anxiety and depression to relationship challenges, parenting struggles, infidelity, and past traumas. My goal is to help you live more authentically, embrace life fully, and develop resilience to face whatever comes your way.

I see clients in both Newport Beach and Tustin, making it easy to find a space that works best for you.
