In what ways have your personal experiences influenced your work with your clients?

My personal journey of growth informs my work. My processing of my own emotions and experiences starting through music and creativity. I experienced first hand the power of music for myself, which led me to studying music therapy and learning more about how music and creative impact the brain and body. I went on to build increased awareness of emotions through mindfulness and yoga practices. Embodied movement, breathing, and awareness led me to explore a range of coping skills through the lens of various psychological orientations. Through the use of creativity, mindfulness, movement, nature, and acceptance, we can learn to navigate our emotions, energies, habits, and relationships. From my experiences, I offer a grounded, calm, and collaborative perspective to each person, couple, and family I support.

Work History

I started my career as a Board Certified Music Therapist in 2015. My primary experience for 8 years was working with individuals, couples, and families facing end of life anxieties, chronic illnesses, and grief. After 4 years, I decided to pursue a license in Marriage and Family Therapy, obtaining my M.A. in Counseling at Palo Alto University. This deepened my understanding of family work and the impact of systems on mental health, relational dynamics, coping, and meaning. My experiences expanded to include school counseling, neurodiversity-affirming practices, LGBTQ+ youth, and parent coaching. I utilize a holistic perspective that recognizes how physical and emotional health impact each other. I offer "walk and talk" sessions. My specialties include creative and mindfulness-based approaches that are influenced by a range of theoretical orientations such as relational, existential, multicultural, and humanistic perspectives to mental wellness.
