Promoting Mental Wellness

I have a strong passion for making a difference in people’s lives. I received my Master of Social Work degree with a mental health concentration from San Jose State University’s College of Applied Sciences. Additionally, I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts with a major in Political Economy of Industrial Societies from the University of California Berkeley. My academic achievements and diverse range of studies have equipped me with a unique skill set and cultural incites.

My diverse and exceptional skillset empowers me to approach every therapeutic treatment with a multi-dimensional perspective, coupled with the cognitive clarity to adapt my interventions to the individuality and personal attributes of each and every one of my clients.

I recognize that every client is unique, with a distinct set of needs and circumstances that require a tailored approach. Through my training and experience, I have honed my ability to empathize with my clients and to cultivate a deep understanding of their psyche. This allows me to provide interventions that are compassionate and effective, while always keeping in mind the unique qualities that make each individual special.

As a licensed therapist registered with the California Board of Behavioral Sciences (LCSW #98554), I have extensive experience working with individuals of all ages who have struggled with mental health challenges. I spent three years working in an outpatient clinic, where I provided compassionate care to children and adults coping with severe depression, anxiety, eating disorders, PTSD, and other trauma-related emotional imbalances. Over the past eight years, I have helped numerous individuals overcome obstacles, improve their social integration, and enhance their overall quality of life. My passion for promoting mental wellness, coupled with my expertise in evidence-based therapeutic approaches, has enabled me to facilitate positive and lasting change in the lives of my clients.
