Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in California. I received my Masters from California State University, Fresno. I take pride in building healthy and transparent therapist-client relationships allowing us to work together to meet goals. I help, children, teens, young adults, and elder adults struggling with various mental health issues. I have experience using CBT techniques, person centered therapy, mindfulness strategies and art.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions. Ill asked open-ended questions about your daily routines, hobbies, family life and more. We will also discuss challenges you are facing and areas you want support in. This will help me create a plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
My experience has taught me to meet people where they are. I'm authentic, genuine, and her to help clients become the best version of themselves.
I love working with younger children who may struggle with attachment or trauma. I also enjoy working with teens and adults who struggle with self-esteem, relationships, family issues, and day-to-day life stressors.
CBT focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors. This treatment method is problem focused and helps us understand how are thoughts, behaviors and feelings are connected. I use this method to help clients understand their thoughts and behaviors and how to mange/improve them.
I’ve used person centered therapy for about 4 years now. This treatment method helps with self-actualization and encourages making positive changes.
