Hello there. My name is Desiree, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have over a decade of experience providing support to individuals, couples, and families in various settings, including private practice, schools, and hospitals. I love helping people to improve their lives and realize their full potential. I am available to see clients via phone and video sessions. I utilize a strength-based perspective to help clients realize their full potential while overcoming obstacles in a healthy way. I am client-centered and work with my clients to develop their treatment goals.
I am someone who values connection, understanding, and growth—in myself and in the people I work with. I bring a compassionate and nonjudgmental approach to therapy, and I have experience working with clients from diverse cultural, racial, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I deeply respect the unique experiences each person brings.
My communication style is warm, kind, and open. I bring a genuine sense of curiosity and positive regard to each person I work with, creating a space where clients feel respected and valued just as they are. I listen attentively, with care and intention, and I adjust my approach as needed to ensure that each client feels truly heard, understood.
