My practice

Hi, welcome! I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT #150411) in Berkeley. I support adults, older teens, and couples through life transitions, relationship struggles, anxiety, postpartum adjustment, and patterns that keep you stuck. I see therapy as a space for growth and deeper understanding. We’ll explore areas where you feel stuck or want change, and work together to define what achieving your goals looks like.

I am grounded in systems theory and draw from Internal Family Systems and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I focus on coping skills, understanding attachment patterns, and exploring parts of yourself and their emotions. As a certified yoga instructor, I bring mindfulness and an embodied focus to my work. I strive to meet each client with a warm, compassionate, direct and practical approach.​
