Biographical Info
Welcome! I am so glad you are here.

I am a queer, Third Culture clinician practicing somatic (body-informed) and relational psychotherapy in the Bay Area of California. My office is based in Kentfield, Marin County for in person sessions, and I also offer telehealth sessions over the HIPAA-compliant platform Doxy.

I support couples, individual adults and adolescents, and dyadic family pairings (parents & children), in growing a deeper relationship to themselves and those around them. Supporting folks with growing the capacity for connection, community, and communication that they want in their lives is where I experience the most joy in my work. See my website for more information about my approach and my practice.
