About
I work with adults of any age willing to engage in therapy to heal, grow or simply feel better. I am able to work with a variety of people from different populations due to my non-judgmental stance and curiosity about other people. I am adept at working with individuals who experience multiple problems simultaneously due to my willingness to work with other providers and supportive group/individual services. I specialize in dealing with chronic/developmental trauma, managing psychological sequelae due to chronic medical conditions, and working with anxiety and depression with cultural curiosity and humility.
I try to encourage less suffering and more contentment in my client's lives. I tend to target emotions in the present moment and I focus on understanding each individual's unique character defenses to create spaces for change. I provide compassion, empathy and meet clients where they are at. Current openings in groups & short term therapy only.
I provide telehealth psychological services to people in CA, CO, and FL. I am a paperless office and provide each client with a private HIPAA compliant client portal. My practice is looking at ways to expand services via short term therapy tracks, adding more groups, sliding scale cash fees with our associates and new hybrid-independent therapy modules.
