Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage Family therapist based in California. I received my Masters from Hope International University. I have been practicing for over 15 years. I have extensive experience in working with adults, couples, children, and families who have suffered a traumatic event, dealing with anxiety and or depression, relationship issues, stress, mood issues, or any other areas/issues that disrupt your daily life. If you are at a point where you, or someone you know, may benefit from having a non-biased, nonjudgmental therapist with fresh views and guidance, feel free to contact me. I believe treatment should be a collaboration that includes your values, the latest research, and my long-term experience in the field. I am committed to helping you make lasting changes in your lives

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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions. I prefer to let the client to discuss the specific challenges they are facing and lead the sessions. I allow them to verbalize what they are feeling and begin to work on building rapport. This will helps me earn the client's trust and give me an idea of what kind of guidance and assistance I can be in follow-up sessions.

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

My 15 plus experienced has given me the tools for helping the client be even more passionate in helping and identify the root cause of the challenges. I don't give up and am very involved with the plan and the goals that we create together in session.
