Our mission is to provide quality online mental health and substance abuse services while breaking down the barriers of traditional, office based therapy.

Welcome! And thank you! I love to work with Couples, Families, and individuals who are seeking to overcome barriers in their lives. Some are struggling with: * anger management, * addiction, * Jobs stress, * familial & social relationships issues, * loneliness, * anxiety, * current or past abuse * depression, * poor communication, * relationship issues, * parenting, * Trauma/Traumatic events * poor focus and attention, * low motivation, * veterans support, * VICTIM OF A VIOLENT CRIME (VOC),* and the search for purpose. Often many people are stuck in addictive self-destructive patterns in their lives, which result from an effort to manage their emotional pain.

Today you're a step closer to making meaningful changes in your life and carving your own path toward growth, fulfillment, and well-being. As a solution-focused therapist, I'll collaborate with and support you to cope more effectively with anxiety and depression, uncover and develop your potential, build a sense of belonging and strengthen healthy relationships, and accomplish what's uniquely important to you. While you can't change what's happened in the past, it's never too late to reach a better understanding of the life patterns that are limiting you and begin to create a better life aligned with your values and goals.

I enjoy working with individuals (late teens and adults), couples (pre-marital, marital and post-marital) and families. It's always too soon to give up on enriching your life and improving your relationships. As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I provide you with the opportunity, the safe space and the quality time needed to attend to your emotional, relational and spiritual needs. My goal is to create a therapeutic alliance with you that allows you to bring me into your world where our work together will meet your needs and improve your life.

At some point, we all struggle to adjust to change and fail to respond to life’s challenges with our best effort. It’s normal to feel stuck. We at Remarkable Services (RS) believe people inherently have what it takes within themselves to adjust, change and heal. No matter if it’s a challenging work situation, a parenting struggle, a tough year of high school or college, we all know what it feels like to struggle. Parents and their children are not immune, in that over the course of the first 18 years of life there are bound to be countless transitions, developments, change and of course, points of contention. RS is here to help!

When our children's hearts have been broken, our hearts break, too. Parents often struggle with knowing how to care for a hurting child. The child's behaviors can be challenging. A parent's own unhealed wounds get triggered. Then, there's the parenting guilt! It can be overwhelming. We understand and we are here to help.

Our story: Some of the best physicians are wounded healers, those who have walked through pain and suffering themselves only to emerge on the other side to help others. We believe strongly in the human capacity to heal. Our counseling specialists work with children/teens, adults, couples and families. With sensitivity and compassion, we help you bring resolution to the struggles you are facing. Modalities range from depth therapy, IMAGO couples therapy, Brainspotting, EMDR, play therapy, addiction groups to solution focused. We are trained in a variety of different therapeutic interventions that will fit what you need.

Welcome! I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. Sometimes life can be tedious and we need someone to listen to our struggles and provide us a safe place to talk without any judgement. My goal is help you understand yourself better and collaborate on ways to work through your problems that are causing distress. I have worked with individuals to overcome and develop strategies to cope with PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, depression, medical illness, cancer, addictions, divorce, and trauma.

At different times we experience unresolved situations that affect our sense of clarity, calm and balance. As a therapist and guide, together we will strive to remove those obstacles and restore hope and engagement. We can achieve this through developing goals and ways to cope that address those often unexpected and sometimes familiar patterns of living. My practice serves individual adults, children/teens, parents including parent and child therapy and elders. My wish for all clients is to find a trustworthy therapist in me.
