As a Marriage and Family Therapist with over eight years of dedicated service in mental health and behavioral services, I offer personalized care by integrating various therapeutic treatments. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, tailored to the unique needs of children, adolescents, and young adults, ages 5-20, as well as families. With over 10 years of experience in the human and social services field, and six years specifically in direct care for behavioral health services, I provide compassionate support and guidance to clients seeking to navigate challenges and cultivate healthier relationships. Based in California, I am registered to offer my expertise and assistance to those in need.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we will begin by getting to know each other and discussing your reason(s) for seeking therapy. I will provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to share your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will establish goals and explore potential strategies for addressing your concerns. Throughout our work together, you can expect a collaborative approach, where your input and feedback is valued. Our focus will be on building trust, respect, and empathy, as we navigate this journey toward healing and positive change together.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strengths lie in my emphasis on holistic well-being, which nurtures resilience and self-discovery in clients. I create a supportive environment where individuals can embark on transformative journeys, fostering deep insights and personal growth. My therapeutic approach is not just about addressing symptoms, but about empowering individuals to thrive in all aspects of their lives.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

In our sessions, I focus on creating a collaborative and client-centered environment where you feel safe to explore, cope, and grow. By integrating various therapeutic modalities like CBT, DBT, play therapy, and mindfulness techniques, I customize interventions to suit your unique needs and facilitate your personal journey towards healing and development. Together, we'll work towards achieving your goals and fostering positive change in your life.
