I’m a licensed psychotherapist and the founder of Exist Unfiltered. Therapy., a virtual practice serving adults throughout California. My journey as a therapist started when I was growing up and observing my family spend time together and lean on one other during difficult times. Now, what drives me are the feelings of awe and gratitude when the human sitting in front of me is able to break through their own defenses to experience their own self-love and acceptance. Witnessing another melt into their true selves with confidence and peace is artwork that only they can create. Supporting people as they reconnect with themselves—the parts buried beneath fear, survival, and self-protection—is what fuels my passion for this work. I believe that your story holds wisdom and your wounds are the guide to your healing.

On a personal level, I’m someone who values depth, presence, and meaningful connection. I’m drawn to reflection, curiosity, and somatic practices that help people come back into their bodies and return to their inner knowing. I believe growth happens both in quiet moments of self-awareness and in honest relationships—with ourselves and with others. These values don’t stop at the therapy room; they inform how I live, how I listen, and how I hold space.

And if you’re curious to know a little more about me, I received my bachelor’s degree in Sociology, with a minor in Psychology, from Biola University in 2011. My education there helped shape my understanding of human behavior through relational, cultural, spiritual, and systemic lenses. I later completed my graduate education in Social Work at California State University, Long Beach in 2017, where my clinical training further deepened my commitment to trauma-informed, relational, and culturally responsive care.

If you’re longing to move beyond survival mode, reconnect with your authentic self, and learn how to listen more deeply to the messages within you, I would be honored to support you in that process. Exist Unfiltered. Therapy. offers virtual therapy throughout California, allowing you to engage in healing from wherever you feel most grounded, safe, and at ease.
