I am a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist and Registered Drama Therapist/Board-Certified Trainer. I earned my MA in Drama Therapy from NYU and have an advanced certification from the International Trauma Studies Program. I live and work on the unceded ancestral lands of the Tongva people (Los Angeles). My work focuses on family systems, vicarious trauma, intersectional identities, anti-racism, and relational healing.

“Our ability to grow is directly proportional to an ability to entertain the uncomfortable.”
– Twyla Tharp
Relationships are at the core of our life experience. We are sometimes defined by relationships with individuals, but also by our relationships with systems, communities, cultural practices, and ourselves.
Relationships can hurt us, but thankfully - they can also be healing. Our connections with each other can repair past wounds, repair ruptured connections, and free us from ingrained patterns. We work to create new patterns that ripple out into our families and communities in inspiring and expansive ways.
