Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in California and Arizona. My passion is helping people build on their strengths to work towards self empowerment. Life can present one with challenges and these challenges can leave one feeling lost, overwhelmed, frustrated or hopeless. Working collaboratively with clients to overcome these challenges through psycho-education, coping strategies, awareness and building resiliency are key in creating change.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing as well as a your history. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with people in different settings with different needs has made me a versatile clinician. This has also enabled, in collaboration with my client, identify needs and strengths to meet client needs.
I enjoy working with children, adults, couples and families. As an LMFT, my education and training focus on a systems approach. Therefore, my 19 years of experience has encompassed many populations in a variety of settings.
I am trained in diverse treatment methods such as Critical Incident Stress Management, CBT, DBT, Co-Occurring Disorders and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy in the treatment of Trauma as well as attachment and bonding. These trainings have been highly effective in providing services to different clientelle as every journey is unique.
