Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in San Francisco, CA

I support individuals through pregnancy, postpartum changes, birth trauma, infertility, miscarriage, and infant loss. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and more. I also help parents work through identity shifts and the stress of new parenthood.

I hope my clients walk away feeling empowered and reconnected to their own selves. I want you to gain a toolbox to manage emotional regulation and feel more in control of your journey. Ultimately, I want you to feel supported as you rediscover joy and balance in your life.

My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and never judged. I work with adults and young adults who are dealing with anxiety, past trauma, relationship stress, life transitions, or the feeling of being overwhelmed while trying to keep everything together. Together, we focus on helping you make sense of your experiences, build on your strengths, and move toward real, lasting change. I use approaches like EMDR, CBT, and DBT, and for those who desire it, I can also incorporate faith into the process.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I have helped hundreds of individuals, couples, and families navigate some of the most challenging times in their lives with compassion and practical help. It makes such a difference to have someone in your corner with a listening ear and wisdom for life's journey!
