Adults Therapists in Hoover, Fresno, CA

I have worked as a licensed therapist since 2004, during which I have been honored to walk a journey of growth with individuals and families. Most of my work has been done with children & adolescents struggling with anxiety, adjustment and depression. I love the challenge of working with children, finding behavior and emotional change. I also enjoy working with adolescents and adults struggling with addiction. The process of growth is individual to all so I work within a client centered framework, pulling from cognitive behavioral and dynamic theories to best serve my clients. I'm excited to meet you and begin this journey together.

My focus in treatment is mainly on traumatic experiences, mood disorders, anxiety, dissociative symptoms, and helping you adjust to life's challenges in a healthy way. Using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) helps me do so in an effective, evidence based and efficient manner.

Parenting is tough. Many challenges, worries, and responsibilities come with the title. There are numerous magazines, books, apps and well-intentioned friends and family who are more than willing to offer you advice regarding the best way to parent your child. Sometimes all these opinions and support can be overwhelming and difficult to apply to your unique situation. As a clinical psychologist, I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults and families. I work closely with parents to help guide interactions with your family while providing additional support to decrease stress and improve relationships.

This path we walk together is sacred and I will honor you on that journey with authenticity, honesty, and compassion.

Beginning therapy is a decision that brings various feelings and expectations. I enjoy hearing the unique worldviews that my clients experience life from.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages and backgrounds, but particularly enjoy working with teens, young adults , and adults who are living through substantial life changes and transitions in the areas of school, work, and relationships.

Each person has a unique reason for choosing to begin therapy. Whatever the situation is, I would like the opportunity to walk alongside my clients as they take the first brave steps into their healing journey. My goal is to create a safe space where clients can be their authentic selves as they begin to understand how their thoughts, emotions, and past experiences impact their behavior today. I have seen clients learn to break unhealthy thinking patterns and develop new ways to cope.

Welcome! You've made the first step in seeking help. There comes a pivotal point in our lives we begin to start questioning our decisions and thoughts, including our interactions and relationships with others. It leads us to having difficulty regulating our daily thoughts, feelings, and emotions. The experience of hardships and emotional pain follows us like our own shadow contributing to the way we think, feel, and behave. I firmly believe early childhood experiences, complex and secondary trauma, daily stressors/challenges, and life adjustments shape who we are as individuals and how we relate to others.
