MARRIAGE AND FAMILY THERAPY TRAINEE AT University of San Francisco

TELEHEALTH, Ecotherapy in Berkeley & Oakland
Supervised by Elysha Martinez, LMFT #93493
I take a relational approach to therapy, meaning that I believe that deep healing happens in connection: between therapist and client, with ourselves, our families and communities, and the natural world. I hold our time together as a space to write your own story and re-write your understanding of yourself and your place in the world. We engage in work (and play!) that addresses relational patterns and explores different ways to evolve. I like to take this work outdoors when possible, so I offer eco-therapy in Berkeley and Oakland where we incorporate the natural world in the therapeutic setting.
My passion is partnering with kids, parents, and families to foster resilience and deep, lasting connection. In addition to family work, I welcome individual adult clients seeking a deeper understanding of themselves, navigating life transitions, or yearning to connect their personal story to a larger context. The goal of our work is to recover the feeling of wholly belonging—in your body, your family, and the broader world. It is my privilege to be a witness on this journey of healing and transformation.
