I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in the Tri-Valley.  I obtained my Bachelor of Arts from the University of New Mexico and later obtained my Master in Social Work from the University of Southern California.

My training and work experience have included outpatient Mental Health clinics, working for Santa Clara County Department of Family and Children’s Services in various roles, and working within hospital settings at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.

 I work with children, adolescents and adults of diverse populations facing varying areas of need, including anxiety, self-esteem, coping with a chronic illness, grief and loss, relationship challenges, and parent-child conflict.  

I use an integrative approach in my practice and tailor treatment to meet the individual needs of a person.
