I am passionate about working with families, groups and individuals with a holistic approach. I enjoy seeing how the restorative power of the Gospel, in conjunction with evidence-based theories can have a transformation effect in the lives I have been privileged to serve. I have worked with families struggling with relationship problems, as well as individuals dealing with depression, trauma, addictions and anxiety. I consider myself Spiritual, Compassionate and eager to help others manage their life in a more holistic manner.

Whether you are facing relational tension, a personal obstacle, or need career advice, every single person needs a place where they feel safe to talk honestly and openly about their life. For many people, mental health professionals provide that safe space where they can regain perspective, clarify their goals, and create a path forward. The counselors, coaches, and therapists at Handel Behavioral Health provide such a space for many clients. During their time, many clients cultivate their self-awareness, examining—with courage and honesty—their strengths and weaknesses.

Every day can be full of the unexpected—sometimes the surprises are good, and sometimes they are bad. When it comes to friends, work, or family, life always keeps people on their toes. Navigating the highs and lows can be hard, even in a world where information is so easily accessed. A search engine cannot always provide the solution. Almost everyone, at some point in life, will need more support and guidance than they have access to.

I currently work with only adults and couples. I work with clients who need to work on symptoms such as anxiety, depression, agoraphobia, academic problems, anger management, bereavement and grief issues, communication problems with family members and partners, self-esteem, separation and divorce, sleep disturbance, work stress, and much more. I use Cognitive behavioral therapy, systems approach, relaxation, and guided imagery. I also provide assertiveness training. I also use Clinical Hypnosis for weight loss, smoke cessation, nail biting, and other behavioral changes. I also do Christian counseling with focus on spirituality.

Walking into a therapist's office is an act of courage. Psychotherapy is challenging, collaborative work. A pivotal piece of psychotherapy is finding the right match in selecting your therapist. In my practice, the therapeutic alliance is formed only after the client feels truly heard and understood. Thereafter, a treatment plan is formulated and the work begins.

Does your family need help navigating relationships? Many people face challenges that affect numerous areas of their life such as the way they think, feel, and act. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and transitional-age youth in a therapeutic environment to help them overcome their obstacles using strength-based and client-centered techniques while emphasizing a cognitive-behavioral therapy approach. I believe that by working together with clients they gain coping skills/insight and learn how to foster healthy and happy relationships where they can be successful in reaching their goals

Are you experiencing overwhelming stress, depression, trauma, anxiety, fears, or panic attacks? Are you struggling with sense-of-self or self-worth? Have you been the victim of discrimination or domestic violence and are looking to regain control of your life? Or are you just in need of having a provider that will listen to you in a mindful and non-judgmental way? If you are, call me to discuss effective ways to guide you in the process of overcoming these and other life challenges. I am a caring, gentle, compassionate, and sensitive to cultural, racial, and religious diversity psychologist. I am fluent in English and Spanish.

Counseling is a process that helps individuals with emotional and mental health issues by building their self awareness, improving their relationships, and developing new behaviors. For children and adults suffering with mental health related issues, I will work closely with you to help you and your family overcome the difficulties presented and find a better quality of life.

We often rely on survival skills we learned as children to navigate the world. These skills helped us feel safe and taught us how to view and interact with the world. However, some of these ways of surviving now impede our ability to form deeper connections with others and ourselves. Our marriages become challenging, family interactions feel hollow, and we struggle to be vulnerable due to fear of judgment. This fear prevents us from connecting with others, setting boundaries, and making better decisions. At Tribe Institute, we help you discover the generational patterns that have helped and hindered you.
