I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California with 6 years of professional work experience. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults to assist in improving relationships, communication, and management of life stressors, trauma, and emotions. I highly value exceptional care and in doing so I incorporate compassion, trust, and hope in a therapeutic environment. I genuinely enjoy working with others to hear their life stories and assist those in incorporating self-compassion, clarity, meaning, and purpose in their daily lives. I implement Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to increase the use of learned skills for a healthy version of you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and healthier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
