LMFT, 20 years of experience
About me
I am licensed in California with 18+ years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I believe that you are the expert of your story and you already have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming any situations that challenge you. We are all experimenting on the best way to BE in this journey we call life. I do not follow a script or rigid psychiatric protocol. I will authentically meet you where you are at and we will together decide what you need for your next steps. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I look forward to getting to know the real you!
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Our first session will lay the foundation for our therapeutic relationship as we get to know one another, explore your wants and needs, and establish expectations for moving forward. I tend to be action oriented so please be ready to receive homework.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
While I am trained in a variety of therapeutic methods, my approach is fundamental relational, eclectic and experiential. The therapeutic relationship is critical to your healing journey, as is your ability to explore your emotions and experiences in a safe environment. I show up authentically and do my best to empower you to be the best version of yourself.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I serve individuals and couples who are ready to get unstuck and move forward in their healing journey. If you're looking to heal from the past, find more peace in the present, and explore the possibilities for your future, then I might be the right therapist for you.
