About me
I was born in California, but I spent most of my childhood in Washington state. I have 2 standard poodles, 2 hairless cats, and 16 chickens. I enjoy living in the country and being close to nature. I live with my partner of 10 years, and I look forward to spending many more years together.
About my practice
My best friend's father was a Vietnam veteran. I saw firsthand how the family struggled, and I also witnessed the generational trauma that had occurred. Thus, I decided I wanted to help people on their journey toward emotional recovery. I am trained in several different trauma therapy modalities. My values align with Kaiser Permanente's approach to health and wellness. I believe that patients are experts on themselves. My role is to meet them where they are, shine a light on what might be keeping them stuck, and support them on their path toward healing. I enjoy serving patients from ages 6 through to older adults. I especially enjoy working with individuals across their life span. I serve patients from all cultural backgrounds and religious beliefs.
How I thrive
I enjoy hiking, gardening, crochet, yoga, creative writing, poetry, antique shopping, and biking. I also enjoy collecting old manual typewriters. My favorite destination is camping and hiking in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

How we choose our network providers and hospitals
Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select practitioners and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business, and uses the same geographic distribution consideration to select hospitals in Marketplace plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business. The measures may include, but are not limited to, HEDIS/CAHPS performance, member/patient complaints, patient safety scores, hospital quality measures, and geographic need. Members enrolled in KFHP Marketplace plans have access to all professional, institutional and ancillary health care providers who participate in KFHP plans' contracted provider network, in accordance with the terms of the members' KFHP plan of coverage. All Kaiser Permanente Medical Group physicians and network physicians are subject to the same quality review processes and certifications.
A narrow network is defined as a tailored, tiered, or high-performance network that has 80 percent or less overlap with a health plan’s broadest network offered to a member in any type of plan offered by that health plan. Kaiser Permanente does not have a narrow network with respect to its Marketplace plans. Members enrolled in Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) Marketplace plans have access to the same provider networks as members enrolled in all other KFHP plans.
