As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of California, I bring six years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in mental health settings. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from the University of California, Merced, and my Master of Social Work degree from California State University, Stanislaus.
My approach
My therapeutic approach involves working alongside each individual to achieve their most desirable result. I draw upon a variety of evidence-based treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. By tailoring my approach to each client's unique needs, I strive to create a supportive and collaborative environment that fosters growth and positive change.
My focus
I specialize in addressing various symptoms and behaviors associated with anxiety, depression, difficulties managing anger, low self-esteem, and stress. I am passionate about helping individuals develop effective coping skills and gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences.
My communication style
I believe in the power of open, honest, and non-judgmental communication. My goal is to create a safe space where clients feel heard, validated, and empowered to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I approach each session with empathy, curiosity, and a commitment to building a strong therapeutic alliance.
My journey to mental healthcare
My journey to mental healthcare began with a deep fascination for the complexities of the human mind and a desire to make a positive impact in people's lives. Through my academic pursuits and clinical experience, I have developed a strong foundation in evidence-based practices and a passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges.
My goals for you
My ultimate goal is to empower you with the tools, insights, and self-awareness needed to lead a more fulfilling and authentic life. Whether you are seeking to manage symptoms, improve relationships, or gain a deeper understanding of yourself, I am committed to supporting you every step of the way.
My first session with you
During our first session, we will focus on getting to know each other and establishing a strong therapeutic relationship. I will take the time to listen to your story, understand your goals, and collaborate with you to develop a personalized treatment plan. This session is an opportunity for you to ask questions, express any concerns, and get a sense of what our work together will entail.
