A Deeper Look at Your Emotional Health

I help clients who are struggling with self-doubt, guilt, shame, and emotional wounds reconnect with their inner selves and heal in a way that feels empowering, not overwhelming. If you’ve ever felt “stuck,” numb, or burdened by emotions you can’t name or explain, I want you to know that you’re not broken—you’re carrying unprocessed pain. And healing is possible.

I believe symptoms like depression, anxiety, and trauma are often the result of emotions that were never acknowledged, expressed, or fully processed. When we experience overwhelming loss, invalidation, or go into fight, flight, or survival mode, we learn to suppress those emotions just to get through. But over time, that emotional avoidance begins to show up—blocking us from love, confidence, connection, and joy.

My role is to help you safely access and express what’s been buried. Together, we’ll explore those emotions, organize them into manageable pieces, and build emotional strength so that your inner self can speak clearly—with power, with voice, and with confidence. The goal is not just symptom relief, but emotional wholeness—so you can face your future with clarity, confidence, and a grounded sense of self-worth.

What I Offer You

Framed certificates: one from University of Southern California for a Master of Social Work and another from the State of California Board of Behavioral Sciences as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

Over the years, I’ve walked alongside clients at every point on the emotional spectrum. Some feel completely shut down, numb to even the most joyful moments. Others arrive with tears already flowing, having carried their pain alone for far too long. Wherever you land, know that your emotional experience is valid—and you don’t have to carry it alone.

My process is both intuitive and structured. As we unpack the life events, memories, and learned patterns that shaped how you relate to yourself and others, I help you make deep, compassionate sense of your story. Then, we work to build emotional resilience, increase emotional tolerance, and reclaim the parts of you that felt too much, too needy, or too broken to be accepted.

You’ll begin to feel emotions—not as threats—but as vital signals. We’ll gently examine your triggers, the beliefs behind your reactions, and the habits that have kept you in survival mode. From there, we’ll create space for healing, clarity, and connection.

Lasting Change: Healing from the Inside Out

What lights me up most in this work is when a client has their “aha” moment—when something clicks and they finally feel seen, understood, and emotionally clear. I love helping people connect the dots between their pain and their patterns. You’re not your diagnosis. There is always a person underneath the symptoms—and I want to help you meet them again.

My therapy style is grounded in human connection and deep emotional attunement. I use my A.R.E. approach—Attentive, Responsive, and Engaged—to ensure you feel safe, supported, and truly heard in our work together. I’m not here to fix you. I’m here to walk with you as you uncover the truth of who you are—strong, capable, and worthy of emotional freedom.

Together, we’ll build a relationship with your inner self that:

  • Expands your emotional range

  • Helps you move through trauma, anxiety, loss, or shame

  • Cultivates healthier, more secure relationships—with others and yourself

You deserve more than survival. You deserve to feel alive, whole, and emotionally empowered. And if you’re ready, I’d be honored to guide you there.
