My training and how I work.
I earned my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Rosemead School of Psychology of Biola University in 2020, and I have been a licensed clinical psychologist in California (PSY33552) since 2022.
I work from an attachment and emotion focused, psychodynamic therapy approach, which explores how you relate to yourself and others based on your past and provides corrective relational experiences. I also enjoy integrating spiritual development into treatment when requested.
Genuine connection with my clients is the foundation of change, as it provides context for understanding and a soft place to land in the midst of facing difficult realities. Together we can face and explore the emotional and relational patterns that are keeping you stuck.
Genuine connection is the foundation of change.

In the room
How clients experience me.
My clients typically experience me as:
- Deeply caring
- Genuine
- Open
- Inquisitive
- Supportive
- Gently challenging
The first conversation is simply a chance to see whether that feels right to you. There is nothing to prepare.
The meaning of the mark
Held. Connected. Formed over time.
The rounded contour suggests a vessel: a place where difficult feelings can be held. Its inward fold suggests connection within that space. The gently asymmetric shape reflects a personal process that unfolds over time.
