I am a therapist that is passionate about working with persons with a diverse and broad spectrum of issues. I work with children, adolescents, and adults in individual, couples, and family therapy. I work primarily with persons that are struggling with issues related to interpersonal relationships, conflict resolution, healing the debilitating effects of abuse-related depression and trauma, unresolved grief, anxiety and PTSD. I approach therapy in a compassionate yet direct manner using a variety of techniques that are tailored to meet each clients needs. Techniques I use include CBT, EMDR, Interactive Guided Imagery, and Psychodynamic therapies, among others.

Trauma is really a disruption to the nervous system. Trauma often creates patterns and loops that extend into many areas of a person's life, and can be difficult or painful to overcome. It can affect our bodies, our minds and the way we relate to other people. Sometimes the way people survive their trauma brings them more pain, adds to the chaos, and reinforces negative beliefs that perpetuate the cycle as well as causing other mental health issues grow- such as depression and anxiety. I work with people of various cultures, sexual orientations, and gender identities and know that trauma is non-discriminatory.

When the way you usually handle things is no longer working for you, it's time to look in to changing yourself. Change your thoughts and you really can change your world. Difficulties with others in your life as well as emotions you are struggling with can be looked at differently and lead to increased peace and happiness. Panic, Anxiety, Excessive Worry, Depression and Anger can all arise from thoughts that trigger your fight or flight response. Change your thinking and you can change how you feel and how you behave.

I have often been described as calming, attentive, compassionate and easy to talk to.

Engaging in therapy offers a safe and supportive environment leading to a journey of healing, self-discovery, and education regarding past and current life challenges. Complex emotions can leave you feeling isolated and overwhelmed. As you engage in therapy, these feelings of isolation and stress are likely to decrease as you realize you are not alone and there are active steps to feeling better. My therapeutic process provides genuine support, helpful coping skills, and an action plan.

Try as we might, sometimes happiness and contentment always seem just out of reach. Depression, anxiety and stress can make getting out of bed in the morning a daunting task. Troubles in your relationship or conflict in the family can make you feel helpless or overwhelmed. You don’t like yourself and never feel good enough at work or around certain people. Maybe you just can’t quite put your finger on exactly what is wrong, you just know you don’t want to hurt anymore.

I have spent the past seven years supporting children and families in developing healthy and positive relationships with one another. I find families thrive once given the skills they are undoubtedly searching for. I attended CSU Sacramento for my Bachelors of Science in Speech Pathology and later my Master of Science degree in Marriage, Family and Child Counseling. I obtained my license in June of 2016 after completing the required 3,000 hours. I work individually with children of all ages and their families in order to ensure that the whole family obtains the skills necessary to grow and succeed.

My goal is to help families and individuals in crisis. I have 3 areas of passion. First, I love working with children, teenagers, and their parents. Children were the reason I decided to seek a career in psychology. My second area of passion is working with my clients to rewire their brains and change emotional reactions. I integrate mindfulness, coping and self-soothing skills, and other tools in both individual adult and adolescent therapy. Finally, I enjoy neuropsychological and psychological assessments, viewing each one as a puzzle and I put my full effort into understanding the final outcome and treatment recommendations.

Hi there, I'm Andrea. Have you been feeling stressed and overwhelmed? Have changes or new challenges in your life evoked feelings or thought streams difficult to manage?

I have over 20 years experience working with adults, couples, adolescents and families.

My approach tends to be cognitive behavioral in nature and I use distress tolerance techniques (DBT). I like to tailor my approach to an individual’s goals & particular needs. What that means is that I like to collaborate with a client to find active steps to take to better one’s quality of life. It is solution-focused, and brief in nature. I believe that self-care and mindfulness are essential tools for quality of life, yet we aren’t always taught how to do that for ourselves. My clients say that I am direct, yet compassionate, and that they feel validated & empowered to make changes in their lives.

My work with individuals, couples and families helps them develop the essential skills for cultivating and maintaining satisfying relationships in all sectors of their lives. A primary goal of my work is increased confidence in my clients for handling life transitions, relationship challenges, cross-cultural issues, and trauma recovery through EMDR.
