Space for Cultivating Authenticity Through Meaningful Connection

About Me

I was born and raised in the Los Angeles area, coming to Portland in 2016. I feel so much gratitude for the greenery of Oregon, and try to get outside with my partner and pup any chance I get. I love the food scene in Portland, and make a point of trying new restaurants often. I love watching baseball (go Dodgers!), learning about new things, gardening, and embracing my creativity through art and design.

I hold a Master's Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Southern California. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Oregon, as well as a registered Marriage and Family Therapy Intern awaiting my exam. I have a passion for working with teens, young adults, women, and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

Eating Disorder Treatment

Whether you’re struggling in your relationships, with your mood or anxiety, disordered eating, or anything else - you’re not meant to do it alone. I believe humans are profoundly relational, and I believe that meaningful connections give us the courage to make necessary changes in our lives. I show up as myself in the therapy room - integrating humor, story telling, and metaphors. I’m spirited, imperfect, and whole – hopefully allowing you to be your whole self with me.

I see therapy as a space for honest, compassionate, and collaborative dialogue about what’s working in your life and what’s not. Through our relationship, we can better understand the past, and write an empowering narrative moving forward. Together, we can find a balance between practicing acceptance, and enacting change – identifying skills and strategies that will best work for you.

“Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance.”

- Brené Brown
