I'm a twenty-year veteran in the health and wellness industry, and I believe that true happiness is comprised of many components: a healthy emotional state, relationships, social support, meaning and purpose, assertive communication, and a healthy body.
My approach
Integrating my past expertise in health promotion and physiology combined with my experience as a therapist, I focus on the whole person with an existential and solution-focused platform. My therapeutic modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Integrative/Integral Psychotherapy, Positive Psychology, Solution Focused therapy, and Coaching.
My focus
I work with individuals, couples, families, minors (ages 13-17), and preteens (ages 8-12). My specialties include ADHD, adolescents/teens, aging, anger management, anxiety, behavioral issues, career counseling, chronic illness, chronic pain, codependency, coping skills, cultural stress, depression, emotional disturbance, family conflict, grief, impulsivity, job stress, life coaching, life transitions, marital/pre-marital issues, men's issues, mood disorders, OCD, parenting, relationship issues, school issues, self esteem, sleep/insomnia, spirituality, sports performance, stress, thought disorders, trauma/PTSD, traumatic brain injury, weight loss, and women's issues.
My communication style
I communicate in a direct yet caring manner, blending empathy with solution-focused guidance. My approach integrates active listening and collaborative dialogue to foster meaningful insights and practical strategies tailored to your unique needs and goals.
My journey to mental healthcare
I earned my Masters of Arts (MA) degree from Antioch University in Santa Barbara, CA, where I studied from January 2011 to April 2013.
My goals for you
My goal is to help you feel more in control of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to increase your performance in life, relationships, and career while helping to navigate a more meaningful and healthier self.
