LMFT, 8 years of experience
Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California and have been practicing since 2017. I believe our therapeutic journey is a path to be walked on with a healing partner. I work with organic and eclectic therapeutic methods specifically tailored to meet your goals. I consider it a privilege to be given entrance into the lives and hearts of my clients.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with individuals with Complex PTSD, substance use disorders, and trauma since 2017, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to tangible and measurable progress.
Are you struggling with negative or difficult emotions? Are you experiencing problems in your relationships? Have the struggles of your childhood or a trauma taken on a life of their own? Maybe you are “stuck” and want to be more in control of your life. Allow me to partner with you to teach you useful tools to help process, refocus, redirect, and enhance the quality of your life. Seeking therapy is not always an easy choice. Congratulations on making a choice to improve your life. This is the first and most important step in achieving your goal of becoming a happier, healthier you.
I've been using Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in my practice for the past 8 years. It's helps many clients challenge recurring thoughts and manage their anxiety and Trauma Recovery. We will use tools to help recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all directly related to one another. We can then use that knowledge to re-establish healthier thinking patterns to help reduce anxiety and trauma triggers.
I utilize CBT treatment and work with what works best for my clients.
I work with EMDR treatment for clients struggling with CPTSD, PTSD, and trauma.
