Let's Connect (805) 429-8637

One who is experiencing any type of relationship issue, that is wanting to work on themselves and continue to strengthen either themselves or their relationship by working through the challenges that have exposed areas of growth in the individual.
By exploring their self-perceptions, I am able to understand from the client's experience how their image of themselves affects their interactions within the relational dynamics. I am then able to discuss challenges within relationships and assist in processing how the client's identity contributes to discord & collaborate on growth opportunities.
Change can be intimidating and challenging. I enjoy focusing on the unrecognized strength of the individual and empowering them to face those challenges together. If you are ready to be empowered and challenged, I eagerly await to begin a therapeutic relationship with you.
