Alzheimer's Therapists in San Diego, CA

My life experience as both a partner and parent enable me to work with people with an array of problems, challenges and cultural diversity. With motivation, commitment, and hard work, most people are able to improve their mood and gain greater satisfaction in their relationships and their lives. After my initial assessment, I collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that addresses their unique goals.

Take a breath – go ahead. The process of finding a therapist can feel daunting and overstimulating, much like the world in general. Bear in mind that you don’t have to commit to a particular person right away. What’s most important is that you feel safe, supported, and heard. It might take a bit to find someone with whom you resonate, so I invite you to take the time and space you need. Our society conditions us to feel a sense of urgency, and it’s helpful to remind ourselves that we are more than our productivity, and we are more than our labels. As a person and professional, I celebrate diversity and multiculturalism of all kinds.
