**ONLINE THERAPY AVAILABLE** Do you come from a family where one or both of your parents/caregivers were not emotionally there for you as a child, maybe they had an addiction (alcohol, drugs, work, anything else but you)? From these experiences as a child you received and downloaded messages that impact your life now as an adult. Maybe now as an adult you too suffer from an addiction, experience depression and/or anxiety or perhaps you keep finding yourself in co-dependent relationships.

As a group, we have served in Sacramento since 2007, offering various counseling services, groups, classes, and workshops. We practice from an ecosystemic perspective, an interconnected whole. As individuals living in the wider world we must interact with each other, attending to the health of our inner life and the health of our personal and public relationships. We must learn how to balance inner and outer peace with inner and outer freedom. As an ecosystem we function as a unit of very dynamic and complex symbiotic relationships. Our health depends on ensuring balance within ourselves and balance in our communities.

I believe we all have a wise woman or wise man inside us who tells us our truth. Most of us have been conditioned to disregard this inner voice. My goal is to ask the questions that enable you to know what is true for you and to provide the support you need to act on this truth.

My ideal client is someone navigating life after past harmful behaviors, often while involved in the justice system. They are ready to take accountability and explore the roots of their actions. Many have complex histories shaped by trauma, shame, and disconnection. They seek a nonjudgmental space to build insight, emotional regulation, and healthier relationships. I use a strength-based approach grounded in CBT and the Good Lives Model to support lasting, meaningful change.

You’ve probably figured out most things in your life. Therapy may not have made that list — too surface, too slow, or the person across from you just couldn’t keep up. But something isn’t moving, no matter how well you understand it. A loss that sits wrong. A pattern that repeats. Something from a long time ago that still has weight. I work with high-functioning adults who are done with worksheets and want real depth — people who think hard, feel deeply, and are finally ready to do something about what they’ve been carrying.

My journey to becoming a therapist began with a deep curiosity about human behavior and the motivations that drive us. This passion led me to study Psychology at Chico State, Counseling at Sacramento State, and eventually Applied Behavior Analysis at the Florida Institute of Technology. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work across a multitude of modalities, including clinic settings for Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) with children (aged 2-18) and their families as a parent coach. From here, I've worked in group private practice, school-based mental and behavioral health, and community mental and behavioral health.
