Exploring Depth and Meaning through the Art of Psychotherapy

About me

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California and Hawaii, with a private practice in Dana Point, California. Currently, I’m a fifth-year candidate in the training program at the C.G. Jung Institute of Los Angeles, working toward certification as a Jungian Analyst. I also serve as Clinic Director at Coldwater Counseling Center in Studio City, a nonprofit mental health center dedicated to depth and Jungian psychotherapy.

My approach is grounded in the work of Carl Jung, the Swiss psychiatrist whose psychodynamic methods invited a deep exploration of the unconscious and the path to self-understanding. I help clients delve into their inner worlds and navigate their individuation journeys, focusing on working closely with creative individuals—believing we are all artists at heart—who seek to understand and harness their inner energies. Together, we delve into personal mythologies, dreams, and symbols, drawing on the Jungian concepts of archetypes and transformation to uncover meaningful insights.

I welcome anyone on a journey of personal growth, whether they’re navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, or existential questions. Using tools like dream interpretation, active imagination, storytelling, and sandtray, I accompany clients as they confront shadows, integrate their inner complexities, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.
