Education & Training
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Sociology before pursuing advanced training in social work. I received my Master of Social Work (MSW) with an emphasis on children and families from Azusa Pacific University in 2016 and became licensed as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in 2021.
Since then, I have focused my clinical work on supporting children and families in private practice settings, with specialized experience in early childhood (ages 0–5). I am trained in evidence-based approaches including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Managing and Adapting Practice (MAP). I value building strong, collaborative relationships with clients and supporting them in reaching their therapeutic goals.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family. On weekends, you can often find me running a 5K or walking my dog. I also enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures.
