ABOUT

A Psychologist
Who Collaborates

I am a clinical psychologist licensed in California and New York. I am based in Hillcrest, San Diego, where I provide in-person therapy and developmental evaluations. I also provide virtual individual and group therapy to residents of California and New York. My clinical training and experience at leading teaching hospitals and programs, working with clients across the lifespan, have equipped me with a broad base of knowledge and skills. I have chosen to focus my practice on developmental evaluations, adolescent and young adult group therapy, and walk-talk individual therapy to offer effective, dynamic interventions to which I bring my best and whole self. An East Coast native and Returned Peace Corps Volunteer from Guatemala, I am a cultural hybrid with proficiency in Spanish and Korean. My relational and collaborative style reflects a deep commitment to co-creating a welcoming and safe space with each client.

Using the transformative power of group, and coupling movement with talk therapy, the aim is a dynamic process for self-exploration, self-reflection, growth, and emotional resilience.

She has developed a broad base of knowledge from a wide range of training settings — from therapy to neuropsychological testing, from children to adults, from hospital settings to community centers to private practice.
