Hi, I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in California. I have worked in nonprofits, schools, communities, and government agencies, working with clients from 5-85. I have been in Private Practice for 14 years.

The reason I am writing this is because she has been able to really help me and understand me. I feel like I am heard every time I share something personal and valuable. The help and guidance she has given me have allowed me to grow in ways that I don't think I would have ever achieved without her!
