Hello. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in California. I have been licensed since July of 2006. I have a passion for assisting people through challenges with the transformative power of therapy. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, anger management, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & coping with life changes. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

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

It is important from the first session for you to feel like you are being heard and understood. While, the first session includes some basic information about the benefits and limitations of tele-therapy and more specifically on the expectation and exceptions to confidentiality, it is really about getting to know each other. I begin with an introduction of myself and my therapy approach. I then ask questions in order to get a sense of who you are, what your values are, what brought you into therapy, and what your expectations are of the process. This will assist in the development of a tailored plan and some goals for us to work on in follow up sessions.

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

I have years of experience as a person-centered, strength-based and supportive therapist. My approach is through a lens of positivity and empathy. I believe that each of us has the power within ourselves to actualize our true potential. I have the privilege to be able to join with and empower people to discover their unique strengths and resiliency to find their best paths forward.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I love working with people that are feeling lost or stuck in particular areas of their lives, whether it is in their job, school, relationships, or in relation to their own sense of values and self-identity. People that are looking for a safe, confidential, non-judgmental and supportive therapist that provides space for exploration and feedback to empower them and assist them in the discovery of their best ways forward.

Positive Psychology

I believe that each person is the expert in their own lives. I use Positive Psychology to assist people in discovering and enhancing their resilience, coping skills and belief in themselves in finding more fulfillment in their lives.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I empower and assist individuals in examining how the way they think determines the way they feel and react to the world around them. By identifying and changing problematic or distorted thoughts to healthier thinking, feelings will improve, which results in more positive interactions and behaviors.
