I am a highly trained and experienced clinical social worker whose practice invites individuals, couples & families facing adaptational challenges of all kinds throughout the life cycle: infancy through end-of-life. Working with strength-based developmental treatment models, I find best results are achieved in strong collaboration with individuals (and designated family members), who have the capacity to engage in a meaningful therapeutic relationship, have good family and social supports, and are motivated for change.

I specialize in working with adults and couples who are struggling with a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, trauma, stress, and grief. I work from a person-centered, strengths-based approach, implementing Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic theory, Internal-Family Systems, and mindfulness into my work with clients. I believe that by identifying and challenging our faulty assumptions and patterns of negative thinking, we can begin to view the world more positively and improve our relationships with others.

I believe that we all need support, however at times we may need a different type of support than what those close to us can and/or are able to provide. Reaching out and asking for help takes a significant amount of strength and courage, something I not only recognize, but respect in all aspects of my practice. Whether you are going through a difficult life experience or are dealing with something that is more long-standing and chronic, I am committed to working with you to reach your personal goals.

If you feel stressed, worried, overwhelmed, or negative, I can assist you to access clarity, confidence, and peace of mind & heart.

My methods harmonize conscious and subconscious mind so that your actions are congruent with your goals. Finally enjoy freedom from self-sabotage and conflicted feelings! SE HABLA ESPAÑOL.

Many individuals who may benefit from therapy are feeling emotionally distressed. This could be the result of problems within their relationships, job, academic setting, or due to general life stressors. Yet, many of these individuals are also reluctant to seek treatment due to the various misconceptions about therapy. This is of particular importance to my treatment approach, as I strive to meet each client's distinct needs with the understanding that this endeavor may not have been an easy one.

As eclectic therapists, we like to work collaboratively with clients to support positve change and growth. We draw upon cognitive-behavioral, systemic, strengths-perspective and psychodynamic theories of treatment to meet each client's needs. New coping tools, including rational challenges to negative thinking, are essential elements in the treatment process.

Parenting stress, marriage strain, anxiety, fear, sadness, big life transitions... it can all be difficult to manage, but you don't have to do it alone. Help is available and you just took the first step to secure the support you need.

"Everyday is a good day, it's just that some days are better than others" This is my motto in my practice and in life.

I am an experienced business professional that entered the field of marriage and family therapy to help others. I have been inspired to change careers to this path as my own life experience taught me about the importance of caring for my mental health to live my best life.

The infancy and early childhood period is critical for emotional and behavioral development. Both ordinary and challenging events such as sleep and eating routines, school entry, family separations and conflict, illness, or trauma can push development and relationships off track, leading to worrisome problems at home and school. Young children speak their own language-- one that is not always easy to decode. I work with children ages 0 to 10 and their caregivers to understand the meaning of behavior problems and symptoms and help caregivers work with child and with one another to get development back on track.

The purpose of spiritual counseling is to support you in living from your deepest, most authentic self. As we continually develop, it can be difficult to remain authentic, difficult to balance our own highest values with cultural, vocational, and familial challenges. Especially in times of transition, it takes support, reflection and encouragement to remain true to who we are. While I bring my experience as an ordained Zen Buddhist to my spiritual counseling practice, ultimately my goal is to meet clients where they are, using the particularities of their strengths to help them settle more deeply into their true selves.
