Self Esteem Therapists in Lomita, CA

I specialize in therapy for individuals and couples and focus on improving relationships, self-esteem and mood. I combine Cognitive-Behavioral and Family Systems approaches into counseling. There is also a great emphasis on increasing participation in hobbies and interests as well as diet and exercise while doing mental health work in therapy. Referrals, resources, and recommendations may be given in order to support couples or individuals in this.

Therapy work is a process of self discovery that's both fulfilling and challenging. As a psychotherapist, my commitment is to provide you with a safe and creative context for an ongoing collaboration. Together, with compassion, persistence and humor, we'll work to identify and uncover self-sabotaging behaviors: the conditioned ways of being and outmoded ways of thinking that often manifest as confusion, self-doubt, fear, anger or anxiety.

I am passionate about empowering others. I believe we all have the capacity for growth and healing when given the chance to be heard, understood, and unconditionally accepted. For over 12 years as a LMFT, I have had the privilege to help many diverse populations including dv survivors, US Veterans, at risk youth, families, court custody cases and those struggling with loss, depression, anxiety, anger management and couple relational problems. I want to help you reach your goals by utilizing your strengths and minimizing your self-defeating thoughts and behaviors.

I believe everyone deserves a safe place to share life’s challenges, and I enjoy working together with a client to sort out those challenges and achieve goals. Seeking growth through vulnerability and identifying strengths guides my practice.

I have worked for many years with individuals and families who have faced major challenges. Extra support during stressful times can have practical benefits, and can even create opportunities for growth. You will benefit from this investment for the rest of your life. The theme of my practice is Growth through Life Transitions.

I always wanted to assist those in the community with overcoming emotional challenges. I have over 16 years' experience working with children, adolescents, adults, families and couples. I've worked with El Nido Family Centers for 16 years providing psychotherapy and case management services. I am trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. I obtained my Master's degree from Adelphi University in Garden City, New York. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I look forward to meeting with you to talk and develop new ways of overcoming life's challenges.

I am here for you, for the person who is struggling to get out from under the cloud of anxiety, depression, or that feeling that you just aren't "good enough". I am here for the parent who is struggling with how to manage, and for the child who has trouble regulating their emotions. We have all been there, even therapists. I come from a place of compassion and understanding, ready to meet you where you're at and find out what works for you to heal and grow.

Feeling stressed or overwhelmed? Tearing up or having crying spells? Family, relationships or work becoming more challenging? Or maybe, past situations are now causing feelings of sadness, anger, or shame because you can't forget the memory though you try. These are things that many people deal with on daily basis, however you don't have to do it alone. Therapy is an opportunity to learn ways of coping with things that can be emotionally draining. Counseling is not only what I do, but what I love! You will have the opportunity to share your thoughts in an environment free from judgment or criticism.
