Are you looking for nonjudgmental listening, do you struggle with anxiety and worry over daily living, do you need support in a phase of life struggle? Through an initial assessment we will work together on developing your goals to support growth to better living. You will receive compassionate listening that provides a nonjudgmental space to work through challenges that you may be going through. I specialize in children, youth, and families dealing with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and mood disorders. I have been providing therapeutic services to youth and families since 2009 when I started working in the school system providing therapy to students through their IEP. Currently, I have been in private practice since 2018 providing therapy to adults and youth utilizing Solution Focused, CBT, and DBT therapy styles in my practice supporting patients with mood disorders, depression, anxiety and life transitions. In my teletherapy practice, I have moved away from working with patients under 12 as I find that in-person therapy is more effective for younger children. I received my Master's Degree from California State Long Beach and earned my licensure hours through the Los Angeles Unified School District. My hope for patients is for them to be able to learn skills that will help them move forward from current challenges on their own.

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

In our sessions, we will develop a compassionate environment where you will develop the goals and coping skills needed for you. In our first session, we will complete an initial assessment, and decide on goals for therapy. After our initial assessment, you can expect compassionate listening, and learning coping skills to work through what brings you to therapy.

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

As a therapsit I am able to provide a safe comfortable space for you to share your thoughts and feelings and begin to find a way to becoming the person you are looking to become.
