I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (#110567), working in a private practice setting in San Francisco, CA.
I am currently meeting with clients in-person on Tuesdays in San Francisco. I also have availability for telehealth sessions with anyone in California.
I describe myself as quirky, creative, feminist, introverted, and intuitive. My struggles in life have included anxiety, depression, grief, insecurity, trauma, and shame.
I am hopeful and realistic, and I believe in this work because I have seen how far I have personally come in my own therapy.
I am particularly committed to supporting folks in the LGBTQIA community, as well as anyone who identifies as an outsider or rebel.
I am accepting new clients and look forward to hearing from you.
