From Filmmaking to Therapy

I’m a licensed therapist (LMFT) in California and Oregon, specializing in working with creatives, fellow therapists, and individuals who had to grow up fast. I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts from York University in Toronto, Canada, before later returning to school to complete my master’s in Integral Counseling Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked in the film industry, where I explored storytelling as a tool for personal and collective transformation. Through my own creative work, I discovered how filmmaking can be a powerful means of self-discovery, helping me confront personal and societal narratives that shaped my life. This transformative journey ultimately led me to psychotherapy, where I now help others navigate their own emotional and creative journeys.

In therapy, I offer a warm, interactive space where individuals can explore their inner worlds, confront challenges, and reconnect with their authentic selves. I believe therapy can foster growth, resilience, and deeper connection—and that everyone deserves the opportunity to reclaim their voice and live a more fulfilling life.

I specialize in helping individuals, therapists, and creatives with anxiety, relationship challenges, self-esteem, burnout, and creative blocks. Whether you're struggling with perfectionism or navigating the complexities of identity and connection, I’m here to support your process. Together, we can uncover new ways of understanding yourself and unlocking your potential.
