Family Therapy in San Marcos, CA

Sometimes it takes a point-of-view outside your circle to see things differently, more clearly, or with different ideas of how to make change happen. My clients come in seeking guidance on how to do life better - how to communicate, or how to understand their value & purpose in the world or just at home. New insight, new tools, support & encouragement can make all the difference when you take the necessary step to care for yourself and ultimately, give your relationships the very best you.

I have experience working with adults and teens who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and relationship issues.

It takes so much courage to take this step and I am here to support you throughout your journey!

Do you find yourself thinking "I need to see a therapist." Then realize that you have been thinking this for months but haven't been able to make an appointment because you're just too busy and overwhelmed. Do you look at your spouse and think where did the spark go? Can you remember the last time that you were happy and enjoyed any aspect of your day? Or are you done with watching your child struggle with social skills, feelings of anxiety or accepting "no" as an answer. Then its time to give us a call and start making the improvements and changes you want in your life.

You are here because you are hurting and want to heal. Healing is possible and you deserve love and acceptance for just being you- your full authentic self. I have been treating anxiety, depression, identity, codependency, eating disorders, low self esteem and relationships issues in children, teens and adults since 2007. My therapeutic style is often more directive, as I see myself as a part of your therapeutic process-not a quiet observer. I use a balance of cognitive behavioral therapy techniques and exploring how your childhood shaped your current thoughts and behaviors.

Treatment modalities are in cognitive behavioral therapy, psychoanalytic, rational emotive therapy, transactional analysis, psychoeducational, client centered, grief, gestalt, and existential psychotherapy.

Hello, I appreciate you taking the time to explore how I might be able to serve you. I specialize in helping clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, and life transitions. I view my clients as unique persons with strengths and abilities capable of achieving amazing things. I work hard to create a safe and nurturing environment where clients can process difficult situations, heal from painful experiences, as well as explore and work towards achieving their hopes and dreams.

Many client problems develop as the result of a need to feel safe. I provide a safe environment for clients to be able to work with me in developing a treatment plan that meets their unique needs, addressing the behavioral issues and what might be contributing to them. My focus is holistic which means that treatment addresses thoughts, behaviors, the environment and the body's reactions to these things. I am experienced at working with many issues; including PTSD, anxiety, depression, bi-polar disorder, OCD, substance abuse, separation issues, adoption and issues related to abuse and neglect. I work with both adults and children.

I work best with clients who are open to understanding the issues which contribute to their struggles. Sometimes these are transitional situations, like a relationship break-up, loss of a job, or moving out on ones own. Other times these issues are related to underlying trauma or chronic life situations which contribute to ongoing suffering and pain. Being insightful and curious about oneself often leads to healing—of depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and relational and intimacy issues. My goal is to provide a therapeutic relationship which helps hold fears, sadness, and anger as we progress along the journey together.

I work with individuals on a wide array of topics, most involving some level of depression, anxiety, and feeling unwanted or unlovable. Many have tried to handle things on their own and if things were not too bad, they did just fine. Others continue to struggle to self-regulate, self-heal, and self-manage their symptoms and are faced with the stigma of being seen as odd, irritable, annoying, needy, or high maintenance. It is hard enough to be struggling with mental health symptoms; it's even worse when people are beginning to reject you because of how you are behaving.

Pain and suffering does not need to be a normal way of life. Have you been numbing the symptoms, but not healing the root pain? By letting go of judgment and finding your authentic self, I can help you feel empowered, in finding your own sense of healing. While cultivating an authentic relationship, we can create a healthier way to approach life. I incorporate an integrative model that is rooted in mindfulness practices and can be tailored to your individual needs. By helping you find awareness around the mind-body connection, you can experience life in a more fulfilling way, free of past traumas.
