Compassion With Self...Connection With Others

I believe that many of us spend years becoming exceptionally good at anticipating everyone else's needs, often learning to ignore our own along the way. In our busy culture, especially when those we love need our help, productivity and people-pleasing can easily feel more valuable than rest and reflection.
I have seen in many of my clients, and felt deeply in my own life, just how exhausting and unstable this way of being can become.
Choosing to shift away from this mindset and put ourselves first can feel a bit intimidating- as though we are turning our backs on the very ways of being that have supported those around us for so long. My passion is exploring the balance between genuine self-care and the crucial part of human nature that strives to care for others.
Because of this, I love working with all types of caregivers. This includes literal caregivers who help loved ones with physical needs, as well as emotionally intuitive, empathetic individuals who find themselves feeling anxious or burnt-out from consistently prioritizing others above themselves.
In our work together, my goal is to create a warm, dedicated space where you can slow down and feel fully seen, heard, and supported without any judgment. I am here to help you reconnect with your internal world and build a life that truly reflects who you are, allowing you to use your natural compassion and sensitivity sustainably, and in alignment with your heart.
My approach is collaborative and deeply grounded in mindfulness, gentle humor, and the core belief that change occurs through acceptance. Together, we will explore your patterns, build practical tools to keep you grounded during overwhelming times, and reconnect you with your own inner wisdom and resilience.
I tailor my approach to your unique journey and draw from Humanistic Psychology, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed therapy, and Expressive Arts Therapy. My background as a yoga teacher and family care manager also allows me to offer holistic strategies that will help nurture your well-being between our sessions.


About Me
Since 2015, I have had the privilege of working in counseling and human services. Having also experienced the transformative power of my own therapy, I know firsthand how meaningful it is to have someone walk alongside you with genuine curiosity, compassion, and care.
I studied Psychology and Art at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS), and earned my Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology with a specialization in Expressive Arts and Narrative Therapies. I am also a member of the Internal Family Systems Institute and will complete my IFS Level 1 Certification in 2026.
I am a registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT), Certified Care Manager (CMC), and Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT 200).

Fees and Sliding Scale Support
My rate is $150 for every 50-minute session.
Though Full Circle Therapy Collective, I work with Partnership Health Plan of Sonoma County, but do not accept other insurance at this time.
I am also able to offer a few clients a lower rate per hour to ensure therapy is financially sustainable. If interested in receiving this support, please mention this in our initial consultation call, and I can provide more details.
Most clients begin therapy with weekly sessions and may transition to biweekly sessions after some time.
I do not offer couples or family counseling at this time, but am happy to refer to a provider who can meet that need.
