I have a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Chapman University and attended Advance Bible College.
Life can become very challenging, and oftentimes, without a moment’s notice... things change! We experience a lot of emotions, fears, and questions that come up inside of us. We feel all alone and too embarrassed to talk to anyone about it. It’s Okay...You’re NOT Alone. We all experience hard times. We all need someone we can trust and to talk to. I provide a holistic approach focusing on mind, body, and soul to bring mental health and wellness. I offer an atmosphere of safety and freedom to express yourself without fear of judgement. Pick up the phone and call me today for a FREE 15-minute consultation.

Anxiety/Depression: is it interfering with a sense of purpose, success, hope for your future, relationships, and your job? Grief/unexpected losses of a loved one, friend or pet: holding you back from moving forward? Unresolved traumatic memories triggered when least expected, affecting relationships? Are children angry, acting out as they carry old and new worries? My 30+yr previous career in nursing also provides understanding to chronic illnesses, or sheds light on needed medical referrals. I also offer Immigration Psychological Evaluations.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have worked in a wide range of mental health and psychotherapy settings. As a therapist and as a person I know that no one is immune from experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, grief & loss, and trauma. It can be difficult to reach out and perhaps even admit there is a problem. It takes courage to seek therapy and face your feelings. Therapy can be the beginning of a new journey to self-care.

Relying on years of clinical experience, excellent consultation and the latest research, I use psychodynamic, family systems and narrative techniques to ensure that each session offers you a chance for a fresh perspective and deeper understanding.
Every significant life experience tells a story of loss and resilience. I specialize in issues of grief and loss associated with the loss of a loved one, sudden and traumatic loss, and losses related to unmet expectations in relationships. Through years of clinical and academic research, I have found strategies to help clients grieve and accept those losses in order to make clear choices and move forward.

I have noticed this method allows for individuating a clients unique experience of their world, culture, society, and family systems.
After over 19 years working in the emergency medical service field, as an emergency medical technician and paramedic, I realized how a healthy state of mind can have a significant impact on an individual's physical health. Throughout my career, I helped thousands of individuals in their most vulnerable state, primarily by helping them feel safe and secure as well as empathizing and showing sincere compassion. In doing this, I witnessed a significant decrease in their physical symptoms as well as their emotional state.

I provide individual, family and play therapy.
No matter your age, life can be unpredictable and can take you down difficult emotional journeys. For children and teens expressing emotions verbally can be even harder due to their developmental level. Situations like divorce, moving, a death in the family , school problems, friend issues and etc. often lead to negative behavioral changes or withdrawing. This is often due to their inability to express themselves properly. My role as a therapist is to create a comfortable and safe place for my clients to process their emotions and explore their inner self in a way that will help promote healing.

Family Therapy

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
