I received my Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California. I have 10 years of clinical social work experience and worked in community mental health, telehealth and field based services with some of the most vulnerable populations, assisting with issues which include trauma, personality disorders, chronic mental illness and mood disorders. Working for Los Angeles Department of Mental Health also presented me with the opportunity to work with single mothers dealing with a variety of issues such as perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, intergenerational trauma and issues balancing work and family life responsibilities.

In my time as a helping professional, I developed an eclectic style which includes: cognitive behavioral theories, family systems, trauma-focused and mindfulness practices. I am passionate about cultivating a space for exploration, healing and personal growth in order to help individuals achieve their goals of mental well-being.
