Let's discuss your goals so we can take proactive steps together towards positive change.

"Are you ready for a NEW relationship with your thoughts and feelings?" Creating a new awareness of self in relationship to the world around you increases your ability to maintain focus and direction. Developing new relationships with your thoughts & feelings is what Mindfulness-Based therapy is about. As a licensed therapist, I use Mindfulness-based counseling processes to assist people in coping with the struggles of daily life. I have an integrative approach to counseling, focusing on your needs and concerns. I look forward to assisting you to discover more about you!

I'm a versatile therapist focused on creating a supportive environment and providing compassionate and helpful feedback. I began my career more than 15 years ago working with adults and children who've experienced trauma. I specialize in treating individuals with depression, stress and anxiety and provide couple and family counseling to improve relationships and parenting. I have two primary goals as a therapist - create a therapeutic relationship that feels safe and supportive to clients and provide therapy that's effective in relieving suffering and improving people's lives. I'm here to help you reach your goals.

I offer a genuine, straight-forward approach to psychotherapy. This approach includes identifying specific goals and the mastery of real-life coping skills: all with the support you deserve. Having 20 years of experience in the Rancho Bernardo/Rancho Santa Fe/Poway area, I have worked in clinic and hospital settings in addition to private practice. Age range of my clients: teenagers to older adults. I also offer families and individuals comprehensive assistance setting up an entire treatment team of professionals (psychologist, psychiatrist, etc.). You can start this life-changing process with a free phone consultation.

Are relationship challenges leaving you feeling frustrated, stuck, and discouraged? Are you experiencing more anxiety and feeling unsure of yourself too? You may feel alone in these feelings and not know where to start. It takes courage to reach out for help in navigating these challenges. By working together, we will help you create the type of relationship you want both with yourself and with others.

As a veteran School Counselor and Nonprofit Wellness Director I have many years of experience and training in a variety of therapy specialties. I enjoy working with adults, families and teens. I find that most clients come to me for support or redirection when the stress gets to be too much! When they're hurt, tired, or ready for change. Together we navigate new coping skills and communication strategies to help them overcome, or accept life's challenges.

Learning why we think, feel, and act the way we do is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves. From there, we gain the ability to adjust, grow, connect, and show up in the world as our most authentic selves. In addition to the listed disorders I treat, I love working with women's issues, relationship issues, phase of life issues, religious trauma, and the LGBTQ+ population.

I enjoy helping my clients become their authentic selves in a world that tries its best to control who you are and how you identify. I am here to help my clients live their truth and become comfortable with who they are. I will bring my authentic self to sessions as well, which I would describe as warm, thoughtful, friendly, and casual. I utilize an eclectic approach which includes psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, trauma-focused, and strength-based. Our past can shape us, but it doesn’t have to define who we are. I help my clients process past experiences that make them feel “stuck” in order to start moving forward.

I provide useful and in depth psychotherapy for Oregon, California, and NY residents. People are in a constant developmental process, whereby symptoms are signs of ongoing struggles to sort through past experiences while organizing oneself in present living. Depression, anxiety, & personality traits are markers of this process. Therapy with me would seek to aid in your understanding of how & why you live the way you do, and hopefully lead to change. My hope is that we can find a way for you to live more fully and for problems to be comprehensively understood, formulated and articulated, and resolved in a sustained way.

Are you struggling with substances but feel “rehab” isn’t right for you? You don’t need to leave your job or family for a month to find the help you need. Addiction is tough: that compulsion to go back and do the same thing over and over, even though you know it's destroying your life... You feel fear, anxiety, failure, worthlessness, humiliation, contempt... You've tried to break the 'habit', get your control back, but just when you start feeling some success you stumble, and you're back in the same hole again. Breaking your substance abuse alone is not as simple as it sounds. Counseling may be more effective for you than rehab.

Life sometimes throws us unexpected problems, losses, and other hurts. It is essential to have a solid support system to help us through the hard times. Family & Children's Counseling Services (FCCS) wants to be that support system for you and your family as you find healing and a restored sense of hope for the future.

Dealing with various types of trauma and the ways in which it can impact our daily lives can be challenging. I am here to help you understand that your trauma does not define you. Your trauma reactions are valid and I’d like to support you in the development of healthy coping skills. This will allow you the freedom to transcend beyond traumatic experiences, forging a new path toward growth, healing, recovery and wellness. I can help you navigate and cope with addiction/substance use, PTSD, depression, anxiety, life transitions, identity related issues, and family/interpersonal relationships.

My therapeutic work focuses on helping individuals understand and work through life patterns that have, or continue to have, frustrating or disappointing outcomes. I provide help for a range of challenges to include anxiety, depression, abuse and other trauma, shame and self-esteem, stage of life transitions, and relationship difficulties. The invaluable work of moving through these difficulties in the safety of a therapeutic relationship can result in a stronger sense of self esteem, improved relationships, and a revitalized capacity to work and love. In addition to working with adults, I also specialize in the treatment of children and adolescents.

Things in life aren't going how you want? Are you stressed all the time? Maybe you feel sad, mad, or lost, and others don't understand. Sometimes life looks okay from the outside, but it doesn't feel that way. Has your relationship changed and you're not sure how to fix it? I'm here to help! Let's look at what you want, what you need, and how we can work together to help you move toward making your life satisfying. I enjoy helping people work toward making their lives more content, more fulfilling, and characterized by happier relationships. Feel free to reach out for a consultation to see if I seem like a good fit.

My specializations include individuals, families and relationships with co-occurring and complex mental health, substance use, problem gambling and personality disorders. Additionally, I have a special interest in women and couples who are experiencing a broad spectrum of fertility challenges, pregnancy losses, in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments, and postpartum concerns.

I am passionate about helping my clients explore the intersections of adoption, racial/ethnic identity, childhood trauma, confidence, and major life transitions. Throughout life, we continually revisit and re-negotiate our understanding of the experiences that have shaped us. It’s especially hard if you’ve been impacted by unique circumstances such as international/domestic adoption, multi-cultural family, or even just the experience of being a minority in America. I provide a warm and safe space that allows clients to explore their authentic self.

Finding the right therapist is a challenge, we make the process easy. We will check on your out of network mental health benefits (PPO/POS plans only), lay out a payment plan for you, and set you up with a therapist who meets your needs and availability. We have locations in Los Angeles and New York City, and we offer online therapy to individuals, couples, and families anywhere in New York State and California State.

I am passionate about joining clients on their journeys to increase their overall well-being. I enjoy working with pre-teens, teens, college students, and emerging adults. During these phases of life, transition is constant. Many clients I see begin therapy due to lasting effects of trauma, overwhelming feelings, or disruptive behaviors that interrupt their daily lives. I help clients identify practical solutions to address daily challenges, build positive communication skills, set boundaries, build strong family relationships/friendships and heal from traumatic experiences.
