Work History
I bring 15 years of experience in the field of mental health. My roots began in community mental health, doing work with foster families, public schools, and in-home services. Eventually I had the honor of becoming a clinical supervisor and mentoring new therapists in the CalWORKs program which helps adults improve their mental health so they can return back to work. Now I enjoy my full-time practice as a Kaiser Permanente staff therapist and as a private practice clinician. I love working with all populations and have a strong interest in learning about new cultures and different walks of life.
