I bring a unique energy to therapy. I believe that every person has the ability to change and grow and I strive to provide unconditional acceptance throughout the therapeutic process. I pay close attention to patterns, and looks to understand a person’s full story before examining the “issue” that is bringing the client in. I use a collaborative approach so that I can explore, discuss, challenge thoughts and feelings, and create goals. My style uses warmth, compassion, intuition, optimism, and collaboration. I am active in therapy, and although I find listening to be incredibly important, I also challenge my clients, highlight where they’re stuck, and encourage their transformation.

My goal in my counseling is to help my clients live deeply fulfilling lives. I help clients increase their psychological flexibility through various tools and approaches including evidence-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to change their thought patterns. I use experiential approaches including Hypnotherapy to work with subconscious minds and remove blocks that are deep in their psyche. I also provide mindfulness training, which is one of the key techniques for the clients to be more present and accepting in their lives, rather than react reflexively. Each individual's struggles are complex and tied to many factors including their social environment, their physical health, the phases of their lives, skills they already possess, etc. In other words, change can happen in a variety of ways and that's what counseling can help with, pointing out the direction and even the next steps that can help the client to get to their goals and intentions. I work with clients experiencing sleep disorders, chronic pain, anxiety, mood issues, ADHD, career counseling, and those who simply need a tune-up.

Hi, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Northern California. I have been providing mental health services and interventions for the past 6years. Prior to that I was providing addiction counseling. My approach is genuine and authentic, warm and welcoming. I use motivational interviewing to move you along. To assist you in the transformative process. Together we will unpack what has been pushed down for years, change your perspective, focusing on core values and true self. I have work 4 years in crisis intervention, stabilization and helping you develop a plan to move forward with your life. Do you feel overwhelmed and exhausted by the challenges life throws your way? Life has shown up and you might feel depressed, anxious, lonely or angry. You could be struggling in your relationships. Do you have unresolved grief, trauma or shame? Do you allow your emotions to get the best of you? You have found the right place. You have taken the first step towards self-healing and transformation. Seeking therapy can be a scary process. It's difficult to be vulnerable with a stranger. I believe clients should be treated with compassion, dignity and respect. I encourage you to reach out and begin the healing process. A lot of issues we struggle with start with the relationship we have with our selves. When we change ourselves, our issues tend to resolve as well. I provide a safe, caring and nonjudgmental environment and use evidence-based therapies to help you meet your goals.
