I’m glad you’re here. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from The Wright Institute in Berkeley, CA (2025) and previously earned my BA in Dance Making from UC Riverside (2022). Outside of my clinical work, I enjoy lifting weights, dancing, cooking, reading, and exploring the Bay Area.

My background in both psychology and dance gives me a unique lens on what it means to be human. I’m especially attuned to how our early relationships, cultural experiences, and life transitions shape the way we see ourselves and show up in connection with others. Having moved through my own seasons of self-discovery, identity shifts, and reconnecting with the body as a place of expression rather than judgment, I hold deep respect for how much courage it takes to look inward and begin again. These experiences inform the way I offer therapy, with sensitivity to shame, self-doubt, and the ways people lose touch with themselves while trying to navigate relationships, expectations, or change.

At our core, we have an innate desire to move freely, express ourselves, and feel connected. And yet, depending on our conditioning, circumstances, and lived experiences, many of us also come to know anxiety, depression, pain, and loneliness. I’m interested in exploring these experiences with you. While it’s often easier to share life when things feel good, it can be much harder to stay connected or make sense of ourselves when we’re struggling. Feeling confused, overwhelmed, or uncertain is a deeply human experience — and you don’t have to move through it alone.

Therapy is a space to slow down, make meaning of your story, and build a more compassionate relationship with yourself. Learning to navigate both the ups and downs of life takes practice, patience, and connection, and I’m here to support you in that process.
