About me

My therapeutic style pairs a relationally-focused psychodynamic orientation with a bespoke application of somatic, depth-oriented, and cognitive-behavioral modalities. I work with individuals and couples online throughout the state of California, and in person in the Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco.

A lifelong multi-hyphenate, I received my bachelor’s degree at Carnegie Mellon University and built a dual career in the arts and the corporate world before eventually pursuing my master’s degree in Counseling Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS).

In addition to my work with clients, I am an adjunct professor at CIIS where I teach graduate students in the Integral Counseling Psychology program.

Below are some of the specialty trainings I’ve completed and incorporate into my work:
