About
I find it truly rewarding to help those who are struggling mentally.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 6 years of experience, including 5 years dedicated to psychiatric care. I specialize in supporting individuals facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. I am passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each person’s unique journey. My goal is to empower clients to achieve stability, improve their quality of life, and rediscover joy in their daily experiences.
I hold a Doctorate in Nursing from Frontier Nursing University. My approach combines empathic listening with motivational interviewing to create a safe space where clients feel understood and supported. By helping individuals recognize their strengths and guiding them toward meaningful change, I support lasting growth and resilience.
I welcome clients to connect with me in a supportive and collaborative environment, whether in person or through convenient telehealth visits. My care is designed to help individuals find balance, build resilience, and improve their overall quality of life. Together, we can work toward a stronger sense of peace and well-being.

As an immigrant woman of color, I personally understand the profound challenges of navigating life’s obstacles, especially when it feels like you’re facing them alone, without support, or disconnected from others. I’m deeply committed to helping others find connection, strength, and a sense of belonging during those difficult times.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. I provide compassionate support to children, adolescents, adults, families, and groups facing concerns such as chronic illness, anxiety, depression, panic disorders, mood disorders, parenting struggles, and relationship issues. I am also dedicated to empowering survivors of domestic violence, offering a safe and supportive space for healing and growth. My background includes working with children, adolescents, and adults in individual therapy, family therapy, and crisis intervention.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Jane Addams College of Social Work at the University of Illinois at Chicago. My approach integrates evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy.
I am committed to empowering clients by helping them develop healthier coping skills and a stronger sense of self. My goal is to nurture personal growth and resilience, which supports individual well-being and creates a positive ripple effect in families and communities. Together, we can foster meaningful and lasting change.

Life coaching is a personalized support system that helps individuals clarify goals, develop action plans, and navigate challenges. Coaches employ effective communication and active listening to assist clients in overcoming obstacles, unlocking their potential, and achieving personal growth for a more fulfilling life.
In life coaching, our coaches utilize diverse therapeutic techniques that are tailored to individuals, including cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, mindfulness, and positive psychology approaches. They also utilize active listening and empathetic communication to provide a supportive space for you to explore and achieve personal goals and overcome challenges, fostering personal growth and clarity.
Life coaching with our therapists in San Francisco, CA is conducted both in person and virtually via online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The number of life coaching sessions someone attends can differ based on the coach and the client’s choices. How many sessions are needed and how often they occur often hinges on the client’s objectives and the complexity of their concerns. Some clients might opt for a few sessions to tackle particular goals or issues, while others may decide on ongoing coaching sessions to work on personal growth and life enhancement over a more extended period of time. Thriveworks San Francisco therapists work with clients to create goals and potential timelines for treatment.
Life coaches function in a similar capacity to any other kind of coach. Life coaches understand their client’s weaknesses, strengths, vision, and values. Life coaches can help their clients make goals based upon those values and vision. Life coaches can guide their clients on how to capitalize on their strengths and mitigate their weaknesses. In doing so, life coaches can often help their clients achieve more than they ever dreamed.
Thriveworks San Francisco offers life coaching, helping many clients reach their full potential. If you think you could benefit from life coaching, reach out to us to schedule your first session.
These are common questions because, compared to other forms of mental health care, life coaching is relatively new. In some ways, who life coaches are and what they do is still evolving. There is a lot of flexibility within the profession, and this means, they can often provide very personalized care. It would be impossible to list every way they can help, but here is a little picture of who life coaches are and what they do:
Are you working toward a goal? What do you want out of life? Working with a life coach may help you reach your personal and professional potential. Life coaches are great allies. They often know how to encourage, challenge, inspire, and advise in a way that spurs their clients onto great achievement.
The care that life coaches offer is often very personal, and so, the benefits are often personal. Generally speaking, the potential advantages of working with a life coach may include…
Do you have a specific goal in mind that you want to achieve? Maybe you do. Maybe you just have a sense that there is more to life than you are living right now. In either case, know that you do not have to journey on the road to success alone. Life coaches have helped many people shift careers, reach the next step in their professional, improve their personal relationships, reach a physical goal, and more. If you want a life coach, Thriveworks San Francisco is ready to help. We have life coaching appointments available.
When you contact our office, know that a scheduling specialist will answer and find an appointment for you. New clients often meet with their life coach within the same week as scheduling. We also accept many forms of insurance, and we offer evening and weekend sessions. Call Thriveworks San Francisco today to begin working with a life coach.
