As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and Mental Performance Consultant, I specialize in helping athletes cultivate mental resilience and peak performance. My journey began on the basketball court as a Division I athlete at Loyola Marymount University. Driven by a passion for mental health in sports, I pursued a B.A. in Psychology and later earned an M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Southern California.

​

Today, I integrate my experiences as both an athlete and a therapist to assist athletes in developing mental skills, managing high-pressure situations, and fostering healthier relationships with themselves and others. My approach bridges the gap between performance and wellness, emphasizing that mental health is integral to athletic success.

​

I co-host the Mental Training Room podcast, where we explore the psychological aspects of athletics—delving into the behind-the-scenes experiences of athletes and discussing how mental skills training can enhance performance. The podcast is candid, authentic, and grounded in the belief that vulnerability is a strength.

​

Beyond my work with athletes, I am a dedicated advocate for social justice. I am deeply committed to issues such as body autonomy, equal pay, LGBTQIA+ rights, and equity for historically marginalized communities. I believe that mental wellness is intrinsically linked to social awareness, and I incorporate this perspective into all aspects of my practice.​
