Prolonged Exposure Therapy in California

Hello, I was born and raised in Stockton, California. I enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps at the age of 17 and in 1997, after 25 yeas of service, I retired from the Marine Corps as a Master Sergeant. After retiring from the Marine Corps, I worked as a Farrier (Horseshoer), as well as a structural welder (Ironworker), as those were the most marketable skill that I had. I came to a point where old injuries came back to haunt me and I could no longer walk (several years later, thanks to a surgery through the VA, I can walk again; thankful for that).

Are you struggling - often silently - with depression, anxiety, issues around self-worth, difficulty with life transitions, or unhealthy relationships, despite outward appearances? And despite being a modern woman who's a successful, driven go-getter in your professional life? I help otherwise successful women work through their 'stuff' to live a life with more emotional ease & well-being. My clients are ready for growth and change. They're ready to step off the emotional merry-go-round and get unstuck. They want to be successful AND happy. And they want a safe, deeply affirming space to make their positive transformations.

Therapy is challenging as it puts one in a vulnerable position. I believe it takes courage and a willingness to confront challenges in one’s life. To do so, my therapeutic approach takes a non-judgmental, compassionate, and curious stance to foster safety to grow and take on challenges yet feel accepted in where you are.

Life can feel overwhelming, especially when stress doesn’t let up. While everyone has ways of coping, ongoing stress can start to affect both your mental and physical health. If you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, anger, or chronic pain, therapy can help you feel more balanced, build healthier coping skills, and regain a sense of control.

Therapy is a sanctuary where you can feel safe, heard, and cared for. Only when you feel safe can the hard work of healing begin. With my experiences as both a psychologist and an engineer, I bring a unique, systematic, and process-based orientation to therapy without sacrificing the compassionate, non-judgemental, and accepting environment we all need to grow. Together, we will develop a plan to organize the complex challenges you face, do the deep work to address what is holding you in place, and bring you closer to a more satisfying and meaningful life.
