Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. I received my Masters from Loma Linda University and have been practicing for about 4 years. I help young adults struggling through career stress, burnout, or adjustment as they transition into new roles and explore the best version of themselves. I have experience with a diverse population, from different backgrounds and life experiences. I work with each individual as they share their unique journey.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In a first session with me, clients can expect a welcoming and supportive environment where their needs and concerns are prioritized. I will start by introducing myself and explaining how therapy works (especially if it's your first time). I'll then ask some questions about you, your background, reason for therapy, and begin to explore your goals. My goal is to make this first session as comfortable as possible because I understand the first meeting can be scary or uncomfortable.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My capabilities include providing information and resources on coping mechanisms, mindfulness techniques, and strategies for managing stress and anxiety. Additionally, I can offer a supportive and nonjudgmental space for discussing feelings and experiences, as well as providing personalized advice and guidance tailored to individual needs. Whether it's offering practical tips for managing daily stressors, suggesting self-care practices to promote mental well-being, or simply lending an empathetic ear, I'm here to help individuals navigate through challenging times and empower them to take steps towards greater resilience and mental health.
