Therapists in La Habra Heights, CA

I have been in the mental health field for 22 years, including 12 years providing individual therapy. I focus on depression, anxiety, addiction, aging, and relationship issues. My approach to therapy is based on a collaborative process of helping my clients discuss their unique issues and walking with them on a path of self-discovery. I believe that each individual is capable of growth, peace of mind, and living healthier lives.

It's common to feel uncomfortable in the face of change. Most people experience stress when negotiating demands of college or a career, managing relationships, adapting to adulthood, transitioning during mid- and late-life, or losing a loved one, for example. Sometimes, though, stressors like these can throw you off balance and summon your worst demons. Discomfort can morph into self-doubt, disappointment, crippling feelings of inferiority, anxiety, or compulsive behavior. As a result, you might feel hopeless, alienated, misunderstood, and as if life were meaningless.

Do you find yourself struggling with life transitions such as school, professional development, and marriage? It can be difficult to become your authentic self when you are dealing with life stressors and personal road blocks such as; self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. I am passionate about the work that I do with young adults , and the impact on the larger family system. My theoretical approach stems from Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques, and the use of somatic language, art therapy, and mindfulness strategies to strengthen the mind and body connection.
