About
Taking the first steps to make changes and move towards recovery and growth is often not easy but feeling better matters. You may feel as if you’re struggling even if you’re smart, hard-working and motivated, but you can feel better. Clients come to therapy burdened with such things as anxiety/mood concerns, grief/loss issues, low self-esteem, LGBTQ+ issues, men's issues or challenges with life transitions. You want to move forward and make positive changes but are not sure where to start. Have a mature, relational, compassionate and insight- oriented therapeutic partner with you on this journey. If you contact me, I will reach out.
Having helped hundreds of clients in San Diego for the last 20 years, I’d enjoy taking this journey with you. I’ve worked in community mental health, hospice, psychiatric hospitals, substance use and seniors’ programs. I utilize proven interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based, Strength-Based, Motivational Interviewing and more.
Come work with a therapist who is skillful, genuine, and warm, who will help you explore difficult issues while feeling safe and supported.
