My Background

I graduated from Stanford University with a degree in Psychology. Afterwards, I conducted behavioral and neuroscience research at the Stanford University School of Medicine. I proceeded to earn a Master’s degree in Social Welfare at University of California Berkeley.  

I began my professional career at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford, first as a clinician in the Intensive Care Unit and then in pediatric oncology. Between 2019 and 2021, I practiced as a psychotherapist for children, adults and families presenting with a wide variety of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges and attachment issues at Jewish Family and Children’s Services.
