Stress can be caused by many things: change, relationships, work, health, or trauma, to name a few. However it develops, it can take its toll on you physically and emotionally when not managed. I will help you cope with the emotional, physical, and social challenges of handling everyday stress, healing from a traumatic event, living with a medical condition (e.g., chronic pain/headaches, illness), or adjusting to a loved one's illness. I know people are resilient, and I will work with you to keep stress a manageable part of your life, instead of your entire identity.

Are you unhappy in your relationship but don't know what to do? Relationships are the most important part of our lives. Yet, they are not always easy, especially with the people closest to us. Problems arise in every couple's relationship, especially under stressful circumstances such as fertility issues, problems with children, aging parents, blending families, lack of sexual intimacy or coping with a job loss. Stressors like these can contribute to conflict, distance, and other painful relationship interactions. I understand what you are going through and know how to help you find real solutions to your relationship problems.

If you're suffering from depression, traumatic memories, anxiety, or OCD, Image Transformation Therapy (ImTT) can restore your effectiveness in the world and the balance in your life. I developed ImTT while working at Camp Pendleton Marine Base because I needed a treatment that could release the most intense pain, terror, and memories without the person having to experience the feelings or relive the memories. The result is that ImTT treatment enables a person to live without self-consciousness and fear -- spending more of their life in the "creative zone."

I am a Certified EMDR trauma therapist and am passionate about helping people let go of the pain of the past, live more fully in the present and develop hope for the future. When you've grown up in a chaotic, dysfunctional or neglectful household it can be really hard to move beyond your past without help. This is especially true if you struggle with any kind of dissociation. Its' not that your weak or unwilling, it's that you don't yet have the tools and the help to do so. As an intersectional feminist, I recognize and will respect all aspects of your identity and work to minimize any effects of my privilege on the therapy.

"You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf." No matter what life has brought us, we can turn the pain into power. We can make the choice to use our pain as a catalyst for healing. If you’re feeling anxious, sad, or stuck in a pattern of self-defeating behavior, you're not alone. Early trauma can imprint negative core beliefs that become the lens through which we view the world. It shapes our identity and our self-concept. My expertise is helping people clear the residue of childhood trauma. If you're ready to feel better and want to create meaningful changes in your life, please reach out.

Asking for help is often tough, especially for us as men. Who do you turn to in times of crisis or confusion? We are socialized to be independent and "do it myself." However, there are times where we all need some help. Someone to talk to that won't judge us or ridicule us. One of the most difficult things to do is to make that first phone call to someone you don't know, asking for help. You just hope to get someone trustworthy, compassionate and competent. These are my strongest traits, and I welcome your call today.

NOT accepting new clients on waitlist until June 2023. I believe that good therapy involves a combination of a supportive and warm relationship plus science-based therapeutic techniques. Within this framework I consider each person’s unique situation, neurodiversity, and set of problems and then tailor my approach to you or your child’s needs. Therapy should be a collaborative process, and I try to bring a sense of humor and fun to my work with you or your family.

Life is full of uncertainty, stressors, changes, and challenges and at times these issues weigh heavy on us. Sometimes our traditional coping, resources, and knowledge are not enough to help us manage the increase in worry, distress, sadness, or relationship conflict. We may feel drained, tired, and alone, no matter how resilient or strong we are. Sometimes we experience traumatic situations that are confusing, paralyzing, and terrifying and we no longer feel safe or understand our emotional response. Any of these experiences can be overwhelming, but a supportive therapeutic relationship can be helpful at these moments.

Through my experience in working with children, adolescents and their families, I have found that the most effective way to provide treatment is to do so in a non-judgmental, caring and warm environment. I use various modalities to work with the whole family unit and not just the child in dealing with the child's behavior and diagnosis. This eclectic approach to treatment include: CBT, EMDR, Love & Logic, Mindfulness, Creative Therapy, Parent Training and Play Therapy. Every child is unique and therefore, every treatment approach is specialized for that child’s unique experience.

How can I find a therapist in Del Mar?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the United States, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
