Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in both California and Texas. I received my Masters from Notre Dame de Namur and have been practicing for 13 years. Often times people consider engaging in therapy when life may feel unbalanced. Sometimes this may be due to emotions that are not manageable or needing support to get through challenging situations. My goal is to help you live a more authentic life that can be enjoyable and meaningful to you.

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

Our first session will be focused on building trust and a safe space for you to discuss your reason for seeking therapy. We will review confidentiality, session intervals and how I can support your mental health journey.

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

Having worked in this field for the past 13 years, I have been able to work with a wide variety of individuals. I have had success working with clients who have been experiencing mood disorders, depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and fertility. As your therapist, my main goal, is to provide a safe space, with unconditional positive regard, allowing you to work through your own journey of healing and finding motivation to work though life’s hurdles.

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

I have a clinical background in supporting individuals who have experienced mood disorders, trauma, relationship challenges, depression or anxiety. I use an eclectic approach, that combines various interventions that will be specifically altered to meet your needs, as well as Art Therapy, conjointly with talk therapy to help work through interpersonal awareness. I am generally trained in CBT, DBT, and person-centered approach.

My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

I utilize person-centered approach in sessions as I believe the client is the expert in their life. This provides the client the ability to lead each session, while the therapist takes a non-directive role.

Motivational Interviewing

I utilized motivational interviewing to build rapport and explore parts of a client's life that may need further processing

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I have been trained in DBT. I utilize this modality to support clients in bettering emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
