Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, with 10 years of experience. I specialize in supporting women through various life stages, including pre-conception, perinatal, postpartum, parenting, first generation, and other major life transitions. My expertise lies in mood disorders like depression, anxiety, and PMADs, as well as reproductive grief (infertility, miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal loss). I also assist with parenting children facing behavioral challenges and offer guidance on relationship issues and communication. I provide telehealth visits and nature therapy sessions.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our initial session, we'll introduce ourselves briefly and delve into the specific issues you're encountering. This will guide the creation of a personalized plan for our subsequent sessions, ensuring focus on working towards the goals you want to achieve.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a maternal mental health therapist, I focus in patient-centered, trauma-informed, evidence-based care with cultural humility and a holistic approach. I create safe spaces for clients to share, tailor treatment plans using modalities like CBT, DBT, Mindfullness, Grief Therapy, and ACT for effective symptom management and recovery. I prioritize understanding diverse backgrounds and integrating cultural sensitivity into therapy. Additionally, I address mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being, collaborating with clients on nutrition, exercise, social support, and self-care practices. My commitment to these principles empowers individuals on their healing journey.
