(she/her)
Hi there! It’s my pleasure to greet you! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California, and I can’t wait to partner with you on your wellness journey. There are times when life seems more difficult than we can bear. In today’s current climate, life can seem more confusing as the days go by. Managing social issues, employment challenges, relationship difficulties, and personal struggles can be all consuming. With over 6 years of experience, I am passionate about partnering with clients on how to see the best in themselves and how to establish autonomy and agency in their lives. As a wife and mother within a blended family, I am very familiar with life’s struggles and challenges. Stress, anxiety, depression, disappointments, don’t have to get the final say in your life. My role as a therapist is to support you with discovering peace, inspiration, acceptance, and a sense of belonging. Deciding to seek therapy to help manage your day-to-day life is a huge first step. You are important and you’re worth taking that step. If you believe that I can support you as you re-establish goals for your life, I would love to connect with you.
In our first session, I will spend time building rapport and getting to know you. You will have an opportunity to ask questions about your treatment, the therapeutic process, and about my approach to partnering with you on your wellness journey. We will work collaboratively in creating a safety plan and discuss treatment goals you would like to establish and work on during our time together.
My greatest strengths include: building rapport with clients, expressing/showing empathy, and providing a safe, judgement-free environment.
I have experience working with adults, teens, and families that have experienced marginalization, workplace issues, challenges with school, and relationship dynamics.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I have used Solution Focused Brief Therapy for the past three years to support clients with focusing on their best outcomes oppose to focusing on their problem. I partner with clients to support them with seeing the best in themselves as well as supporting clients with trusting their capabilities and helping clients cultivate agency in their own lives.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have used CBT for seven years. Within the CBT modality, I have been able to provide clients with psychoeducation on how thought, feelings, and behaviors (triangle) are interconnected. Providing clarity about the CBT Triangle supports clients with understanding how their thoughts, if not reframed may cause significant challenges in their lives long-term.
Christian Counseling
I am here to support clients from all spiritual backgrounds, however, those who desire to share their love for God as they work toward healing is a passion of mine.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
Throughout my years as an associate therapist and a licensed therapist, I have attended multiple trainings and conferences on implementing Culturally Sensitive Therapy. I have extensive experience with providing therapeutic support to underserved populations.

I had my first meeting / session with Kenya today. My initial impressions are good! She seems to care, listen, and understand. We scheduled future appointments. I look forward to the journey ahead with her support.
