"The protocols I utilize for working with clients have been developed over many years of clinical work and represent a combination of many techniques rooted in theories. I use a theoretical approach best suited to the client. I trained at the Constructual Family Therapy Institute. The theories I use are primarily psychodynamic, structural family therapy, contextual, strategic, and constructual family therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and gestalt. My method of working with clients is simple. First , I complete a thorough evaluation. We discuss the desired outcome of therapy. Depending on history, I select a theoretical approach I think will work best."

"My goal is to restore health and well-being within each individual and to facilitate connection between clients and their loved ones. I believe that problems arise when people become disconnected from themselves and others. They become stuck in patterns of fear and anxious clinging, detachment and avoidance, disappointment and anger. The unpleasant residue of old traumas, disappointments, and losses interferes with people's current success and joy in life. I help people release old patterns and reconnect to their life energy so they can achieve their goals, restore healthy family functioning, and experience lovingkindness for self and others."

"As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help my clients uncover their true potential and lead a life worth celebrating! Connecting quickly to develop the trust of my clients I am better able to address their conflicts and challenges and to help them find resolution and reach their goals. I provide individual, couples and family counseling in a comfortable and supportive atmosphere. I offer a personalized approach, tailored to each individual client's unique life situation to help them attain the personal growth they are seeking."

"Ready for positive changes in your life? I work with adults, adolescents, and children ages five and up. Since children and adolescents are often reluctant to be in therapy, I value building relationships with them so I can build self-esteem. A large part of my service to children is providing parents with advice and encouragement. Foster and adopted children are my specialty. For adults in individual therapy, I listen to the challenges you face, but also help you find and build your strengths to conquer those challenges. I want to see my clients empowered to lead a fulfilling life."

"Interactive solution-based therapy services are provided in an accepting and caring environment.

"You're really struggling right now to understand your child's behavior. You're noticing your child is shut down, moody, or defiant. Even this past school year didn't go as well as you'd like. You and your spouse aren't sure what to do. You're frustrated because the whole family is affected. You KNOW your child is capable of doing better, and this is not the relationship you imagined having with your child. You're concerned something serious is going on and you're thinking "I'm stuck about how to help my child and that scares me.""

"I have a passion for helping people and love what I do! I believe when a person begins the healing process, opportunities arise. I provide encouragement and support to all of my clients no matter what struggle they are experiencing. I tailor treatment to fit the individual's needs as every person has a unique circumstance. I treat children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with Mood and Anxiety Disorders, self-injurious behaviors, anger management, low self esteem, substance abuse, and more. I work with couples and families struggling with relational conflict looking to regain balance in their relationships."

"We all yearn to feel heard, safe and supported as we journey through life. I invite you into this space where together we can explore life's challenges, discover your strengths and feed your passions to pursue a fulfilled life. As individuals, I believe it is important for us to learn from our past, have a hope for the future and be able to live in the present. Therapy can provide a safe space and a timeout from a busy world in order to gain insight and skills to live a life with intention."

"I practice from two different modalities: Reality Therapy and Insight Therapy. Reality Therapy (Choice-Centered approach) helps the patient determine how effective their behaviors have been in fulfilling their needs and then works with the patient to determine a plan for more effective actions. Insight Therapy encourages empowerment of the individual which implies personal responsibility for one's behavior. I specialize in working with patients needing assistance with Anger Management, Marital/Premarital Counseling, Individual/Adolescent Counseling, Loss & Bereavement Recovery, Sexual Addiction/Recovery, Personal Growth & Enrichment, and Divorce Healing. I also possess knowledge in understanding acute mental illness symptoms from my training at Riverside Psyciatric Hospital."

"Life happens everyday and sometimes life can be challengening. It is my mission and commitment to provide the highest quality mental health treatment for my clients to help them manage life. Children who have behavioral & educational performance challenges, ADHD, MDD, and family conflicts have been the areas of concentration in my therapy for many years. I have worked with people from many cultures and backgrounds including those who speak Spanish, use ASL to communicate and people with developmental disabilities. I work with adults and couples on communication and who present with mood disorders, anxiety, socialization and relational issues utilizing a variety of strategies and techniques."

"As your therapist I will help you understand the emotions that you may be dealing with, whether it be loneliness, pain, anger, happiness, fear, or if you are just unsure of your next move. I will work to build a trusting relationship that allows you to begin to reveal more of who you are, what you experience, and what you want. I work to help support the development of greater self-awareness and a clear, internal sense of what is best for you. I am also pro-active in pointing out perceptions and behaviors that may be contributing to your issues and sabotaging your success."

"Do you have nightmares, feel overly emotional, or have flashbacks of traumatic events? Are you experiencing physical sensations such as an increased heartbeat rate and breathing, agitation, difficulty in sleeping, tension, muscular jitteriness, racing thoughts, or anxiety attacks? Are you a hypervilgilant person that is always on edge and is easily startled? Has your capacity to feel emotions and your interest in life diminished? Do you feel numb, disconnected and disassociated from your feelings? Do you feel hopeless at times? Recognizing these symptoms is the first step towards your physical and emotional healing."

""It's all done with mirrors." I believe that the world is our mirror and reflects to us what we believe on the inside. You may not be able to change your situation, but changing your insides can drastically affect how you see your world, and thereby, how you respond. By owning your perceptions and working through the source of those perceptions can you make yourself more effective in your relationships, more at ease with your circumstances (when appropriate) and ultimately experience yourself as more powerful in your life. It is inspiring to witness people expanding and their relationships deepening."
