If you’re living with the aftereffects of trauma, chronic stress, or anxiety, you may feel constantly on guard, numb, or disconnected from yourself and your relationships. I provide trauma-informed online therapy for adults in California and Virginia. I’m an acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)-forward psychologist: we build psychological flexibility—making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking values-based action. We go at your pace; you’ll never be pushed to disclose before you’re ready. My approach blends acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), prolonged exposure (PE), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)-informed skills, mindfulness, and attachment-focused strategies. Together, we map patterns that keep symptoms going, strengthen boundaries, regulate the nervous system, and practice real-life communication skills so change holds outside session. I often support privacy-sensitive clients (federal security-clearance and tech government professionals), veterans, first responders, immigrants and refugees, and LGBTQ+ clients. Care is confidential and self-pay, with superbills available.

I communicate with empathy and clarity, focusing on understanding your unique needs. My approach is collaborative - we'll work together to identify solutions and strategies that resonate with you. Expect an open, judgment-free dialogue as we navigate the path toward your wellness goals.
