I’m a licensed psychotherapist based in Santa Monica, California, specializing in the treatment of OCD, anxiety, and life transitions. My work blends evidence-based approaches, like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), with mindfulness, body-based awareness, and deep respect for your lived experience.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked in the film, music, and tech industries and spent years exploring contemplative practices. These experiences continue to shape my style: relational, curious, and oriented toward meaning and change. I believe therapy should be both practical and soulful. We’ll talk about tools and strategies, but also about what matters most to you, what you’re afraid of, and what you long for.

I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and have trained in the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) and the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program with Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach. I completed specialized training in ACT for Anxiety through Praxis and received intensive OCD training through my clinical work at Anxiety Therapy LA, an evidence-based group practice focused on treating anxiety and OCD. I also worked at UCLA’s Dual Diagnosis Intensive Outpatient Program, supporting individuals navigating co-occurring mental health and substance use challenges.

Clients often describe me as calm, nonjudgmental, and thoughtful. I work well with highly sensitive and insightful people, especially those stuck in loops of overthinking, self-doubt, or emotional suppression. Together, we’ll clarify your values, soften your inner critic, and build a life that feels more connected.

My work is grounded in the belief that healing comes from greater intimacy with our own experience, not by avoiding pain, but by learning to hold it wisely.
