I am a licensed clinical psychologist and graduate from Pepperdine University. I completed my predoctoral internship and postdoctoral fellowship at UCLA. As a therapist, I specialize in techniques for implementing LGBTQIA+ and culturally-affirming practices within therapy and institutional settings and have developed expertise in working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, as well as those coping with experiences of trauma. Though I use an eclectic blend of interpersonal and client-centered therapies, I primarily utilize strategies of identity-affirming cognitive behavioral theory. I have worked in a diverse number of settings including university counseling centers, hospitals, neuropsychology clinics, and community mental health.
