Hi and welcome! I believe that people have the ability to heal themselves with guidance. I work to provide gentle guidance in a relaxed meditative atmosphere. I graduated from Loma Linda University in 1999 and have worked many diverse jobs in social work before moving forward to do therapy. I love the process of seeing people grow, attain their goals, and live their dreams.

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

In our first session together: we will start with introductions, why you choose therapy at this time, and elaborate on the issues you are currently facing. We will then develop a game plan together to tackle these issues head on.

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

I am an excellent listener and non-judgmental. I have seen and heard a lot of things in both my personal and professional life. I value people. I have a good sense of humor. I facilitate a powerful guided meditation and progressive relaxation exercise to ease anxiety.

My treatment methods

Supportive

Essentially I listen well paraphrase the issues of concern and using Socratic questions assist the client in specifying both the issue and the kind of outcome they desire

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Together we'll identify the negative thought patterns, identify the type of negative thoughts, and work to replace the negative, distorted thought with a more affirm, realistic thought.
