Deepen the Connection with Your Authentic Self
Hi! I’m a Heart-Centered Therapist, dream specialist, and author based in Newport Beach. My approach to therapy is inspired by Graceful Dreaming and Balanced Living.
I create a warm and safe space for you to deepen your connection with your authentic self. Life can feel uncertain at times. Through some changes, we may not even feel like ourselves anymore. Are you longing to feel more secure and have a deeper sense of belonging? Are you wishing to build trust in yourself and feel good enough? If you have found yourself feeling disconnected, stressed, or struggling with a life transition or traumatic event, I am here for you.
I specialize in supporting clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and low self-worth in cultivating a deeper inner connection with improved inner trust, self-worth, and authenticity within a peaceful, warm, and compassionate space for self-reflection.
I offer a compassionate, mindful approach in the here and now, with a gentle psychodynamic embrace. I also offer EMDR and visualization practices. If you are interested in listening more closely to your dreams, I help guide you through inner explorations with Jungian-informed dreamwork. If you wish to invite spirituality I create space for you to embrace your faith.
I invite you to gently embrace a more heart-centered life grounded in self-compassion, authenticity, and inner balance.

Many people who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, or stressful life events also struggle with limiting beliefs, self-doubt, and not feeling enough.
I gently support you in navigating uncertain times, finding peace in uncertainty, and cultivating a deeper inner connection. I am here with you on the journey of remembering to accept and love yourself and show up as your true self. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, understood, and inspired to tap into your inner wisdom.
Over time, you may feel inspired to cultivate a more heart-centered life rooted in self-compassion, authenticity, and inner balance.
I invite you to schedule a free consultation call where we can have a heart-centered conversation and explore if we are a good fit, and if therapy feels right for you.
I specialize in working with clients ages 18-64.
