My name is Dr. Detrie and I am glad you are looking to start your journey for growth and improvement. Knowing where to begin can be hard, but the first step is recognizing that something in your life needs to change. I am a licensed, nationally registered clinical psychologist. I started Sea Glass Psychological Services because I am passionate about helping individuals overcome the challenges of life. I believe people are like sea glass: sometimes we go through things in life that can break us, leaving rough, jagged edges. We may no longer feel whole or useful in the way we once were. Like life, the ocean can tumble and toss what is left around, sending us adrift. While that glass may not be the whole as it once was, it is through the breaking and trauma of the ocean that something new and beautiful is created. Life can be hard. Whether you are dealing with loss, change, transition, or another challenge of life—feeling like you have been broken can leave you in distress. I am passionate about helping individuals see their way through times of distress so they can reach their transformation into something that is beautiful and new like sea glass.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy based in California. I have been a practicing clinician for 5 years and I've worked in the Mental Health field for a total of 11 years. My approach is eclectic; I work primarily from a modern Psychodynamic Therapy approach and implement Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies.

At times, we may find ourselves feeling lost in the midst of our daily functions, perhaps even feeling hopeless or chaotic.
