Nice to meet you
I bring my own life experiences to my therapeutic work and focus on developing a secure and safe relationship with my clients. Every individual has a story that is unique and special. I am passionate about understanding each person’s experiences without judgment. With compassion and sincere empathy, I can help you overcome struggles and find the insight and awareness that is necessary to create caring relationships as well as lasting happiness.
About me.
I am a State of California Board of Behavioral Sciences Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience working in mental health. My clinical experience includes inpatient, outpatient and private practice work with individuals, couples and families in both private and public settings. My unique experience with various populations influenced my approach and ability to create a comforting and therapeutic environment for individuals as they navigate various life challenges. I focus on increasing mindfulness of current situations and emotional experiences to help my clients meet their goals and created more meaningful interactions.
While completing a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy at Alliant International University, I focused on treating substance abuse as well as couples counseling. My therapeutic approach is eclectic, combining Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Family Systems, and Narrative Therapy with my training in Eye Movement and Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). I believe in treating individuals and couples through focusing on emotions and the role of attaching to others. It is through this focus on emotions and attachment that significant and long-lasting change develops.
