I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to helping children and families build resilience, strengthen relationships, and navigate life’s challenges with confidence. I provide evidence-based, CBT and DBT informed therapy to children experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), tailoring treatment to each child’s unique strengths and needs.

My clinical background includes specialized training as a Maternal and Child Health Fellow through UCLA’s University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (UC-LEND) program, where I received advanced training in supporting children and families affected by neurodevelopmental conditions, with a particular emphasis on Autism Spectrum Disorder.

In addition to my work in outpatient mental health, I have experience supporting children and families navigating chronic health conditions. This includes helping children cope with the emotional impact of medical diagnoses and treatment, as well as providing support to siblings of children affected by chronic illness. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and family-centered, with a focus on empowering children and caregivers to develop practical skills that foster emotional well-being and long-term growth.
