Nearly a decade beside individuals and families in hard moments
Before private practice, I spent nearly a decade at Stanford Medicine Children’s Health and By the Bay Health. Through my work in pediatric care, medical social work, and bereavement counseling, I’ve supported people through complex medical experiences, grief and loss, fertility and reproductive challenges, and significant life transitions.
Growing up in the Bay Area shaped my interest in how culture, family, identity, and relationships influence the way we understand ourselves and navigate the world.

Areas of focus
How I can help
Each person’s story is different. These are the experiences I most often support people through.
Fertility & Family Planning
Space for the hope, anxiety, grief and uncertainty of infertility, treatment decisions and family planning.
Perinatal & Postpartum
Support for new and expecting parents through the changes to identity, relationships and sense of self that parenthood brings.
Cultural Identity
Making sense of family expectations, multiple cultural identities and how your upbringing still shapes you.
Life Transitions
Help finding your footing through career shifts, changing relationships and family roles, and uncertainty about what’s next.
What to expect
What therapy with me is like
I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe enough to show up as you are, including the parts of yourself that feel uncertain, overwhelmed, or difficult to share.
In our work together, we’ll make space for your emotions and experiences without judgment, explore patterns that may no longer serve you, and develop tools to help you navigate life’s challenges.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing.
Children & Teens
Support for children and teens
Children and teens experience and express their emotions in different ways as they grow. Through age-appropriate and sometimes play-based approaches, I help young people build emotional awareness and confidence, and when appropriate, I partner with parents and caregivers along the way.
