LMFT, 6 years of experience
Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. I received my Master's in Counseling Psychology from National University and have been practicing for several years. I help individuals through many challenging life struggles and a broad range of diagnosis such as Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety and Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD) become the best versions of themselves today.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I have had many years of experience working in a psychiatric inpatient setting and community based mental health. I have had a great deal of experience working with families who are struggling with a family member that suffers from a severe mental illness. As well as working with the aging population.
I love working with individuals with depression, mood disorders and addictions who are wanting a change to find themselves. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious to take that step to make a change on their life from something they are so use to doing.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have a passion for working with others to create the best versions of themselves. I use a various modalities to fit one’s unique needs; CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems and Solution Focused Therapy. Communication is key and I like to set a calming tone, by actively listening, validating, and using reflectively listening. It is important that you feel heard and you have support within your journey to your own personal wellness.
