I am a psychodynamic and somatic psychotherapist who works with adults, children, and families in San Francisco, California.

I currently have openings in my private practice on weekday evenings. I also work at the Homeless Children's Network as a Child and Family Therapist / Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant. 

In the past, I worked as a therapist at an outpatient clinic for adults, a group counselor at a nature-based mindfulness program for children, and as a counselor with survivors of sexual and domestic violence.

In my practice, I center the experiences of Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (QTBIPOC), who have been underestimated and marginalized by society. 

Trauma, decontextualized in a person over time, looks like personality. Trauma, decontextualized in a family, looks like family traits. Trauma, decontextualized in a people, looks like culture... When we heal our own trauma, individually and collectively, we don’t just heal our bodies. By refusing to ​pass on the trauma we inherited, we help heal the world.
