Hi. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 17 years of experience working with couples, families, individuals, and minors.
My approach
As an experienced therapist, I know a lot about practicing mindfulness, exploring your dreams and thoughts, and developing new ways of coping creatively.
My focus
I work with individuals, families, couples, and minors aged 13-17. My specialties include adolescents/teens, anxiety, behavioral issues, codependency, coping skills, cultural stress, depression, family conflict, gender identity, grief, infertility, infidelity, LGBTQIA+, life coaching, life transitions, marital/pre-marital issues, parenting, pregnancy/prenatal/postpartum concerns, self esteem, transgender issues, and women's issues.
My communication style
I communicate with warmth, empathy and creativity. My style is interactive and collaborative - I'm here to listen without judgment and explore new perspectives together. Through open and honest dialogue, we'll work side-by-side to help you gain clarity, build coping skills, and make positive changes.
My journey to mental healthcare
I earned my Master of Science degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from California Baptist University in Riverside, CA, where I studied from August 2003 to June 2005. Your journey matters to me!
