About

I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist with several years of training and experience.  I focus therapy on fostering communication, and like to utilize humor and artistic expression as well. I have experience in the areas of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, life transitions, and relational problems. A former teacher, I am also interested in issues related to school and learning.  I believe using a systemic, collaborative, strengths-based therapeutic approach helps clients to connect with their strengths and learn new ways to live. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can process and heal. 

I am available for in-person sessions in Newport Beach, as well as telehealth.
