I’m a mom of two and licensed clinical psychologist.

As a Harvard-trained clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience, I have supported hundreds of individuals as they navigate through various challenges and life stages.

I am also a mom, and I know firsthand how messy and complicated motherhood can be. These years are full of beauty and joy, but also exhaustion, identity shifts, relationship turmoil, and moments that leave you questioning everything (been there!).

Therapy is a place where you can slow down, be honest about how hard things feel, and find steady ground again. Together, we’ll make space for all of it-the struggles and the joys and get you back to feeling like yourself again.

What to expect with me as your therapist:

My style is open, collaborative and transparent. Gone are the days of the silent therapist sitting behind a couch. I give feedback and ask for feedback. I feel the hard stuff with you, and have been known to leap out of my chair when there is a success. Past clients have described me as warm, highly attuned, funny, and effective. My goal is to guide you toward a life that feels more aligned, fulfilling, and authentically yours.

I would love to welcome you to my office in the heart of downtown Petaluma. Feel free to grab a coffee from the cafe downstairs before heading up.

If fitting in therapy between work meetings or naptime is more feasible, I’m happy to see you virtually.
