"The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence." We believe everyone deserves someone who is present, patient, open, non judgmental, and willing to listen and hear you. Overwhelming feelings can surface a different times in our lives, and needing support through those moments is not a sign of weakness but a sign of being human. If you are struggling with communication, not feeling heard, feeling stressed, not knowing what to do, grieving, feeling alone, or feeling exhausted by all the none stop thoughts in your head... We are here for you.

We provide a full spectrum of services for mental health concerns in order to be of service to our community. We are goal/plan oriented to assist patients in overcoming obstacles in their lives. We very much provide an eclectic approach that is often inclusive of a variety of theories/treatments in order to meet the needs of the patient.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over thirty years of experience providing psychotherapy to children, adolescents, adults and families. I have helped hundreds of clients overcome or manage a variety of life stressors. I work diligently with each client to help him or her achieve their own personal therapeutic goals. I believe in the innate healing powers of each individual and the dramatic benefits that a professional therapeutic relationship can provide. I strive to enable each client to reach their own human potential, thus living with greater meaning, purpose and satisfaction.

I commend you for reaching out to the possibilities therapy may offer. Change begins in this moment. Life can feel unmanageable. We experience the joys and challenges of relationships. The relationship may be with ourselves: inner struggles, uncertain goals, questioned values, addictive tendencies and confusion as to why we "do what we do". The relationship may be with another. The relationship may call upon us to clarify our expectations, to establish personal boundaries, to develop flexibility, to reflect on co-dependence, to improve our communication style and to open ourselves to change.

When we lose our way we feel uncomfortable, no longer in control, and out of sorts. The goal of my practice is to help you regain clarity and balance in your life. I believe that having both allows for growth and success in the different areas of your life: work, school, personal and social relationships, parenting, sports, and networking. For nearly a decade I have been helping individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma or difficult family dynamics succeed in their daily activities and interactions so they can once again find joy in their lives. I am ready to partner with you to help you regain balance.

My primary purpose is to help my clients the way I have been helped on my own healing journey. The empathy, compassion, & unconditional positive regard I feel toward my clients allows us to build a foundation of rapport & trust very easily! I feel a passionate calling to work with clients whose issues mirror the struggles & challenges that I, too, have overcome. I also see myself as a protector of children, including our inner children, to help them stay safe, feel loved and protected, and heal their wounds. Do you desire health, peace, prosperity, joy, abundance, freedom, happiness, and serenity? We can work toward all of this 4 U!

My practice serves the Greater Sacramento Valley region where I offer both in-person and online therapy via video appointments to California residents. I use a clinical structure but eclectic style in treatment approach and believe there is not a one-size-fits-all method that works for everyone.

I believe therapy can be fun and transforming! Therapy is like getting a tune-up for your car. If your car is 18 years old, it might be time to do some maintenance! This is okay; you want your car to run well! Therapy is for the client, YOU. And you are an integral part in your own therapy. You create your own goals; I only help facilitate those goals. I see myself as a guide, someone to help you put the puzzle pieces together to create a fuller, more complete, life. A life that is filled with deeper meaning and sense of purpose. Main Therapeutic Approaches: Logo Therapy (Viktor Frankl) and Cognitive, both of which are direct.

I don't have a specific client that is "ideal" as every client has their own unique history and backstory. I definitely look forward to meeting with people who are interested in self-growth but I also enjoy helping people get to the point to where the may be ready to work on their self-growth. If you are reading this, you would probably be the ideal client since you have taken the first step in just having that thought in your head about maybe it is time to give yourself the love you give to others and focusing on yourself.

The fact that you are reading these words tells us you have been attempting to overcome some type of life adversity. We often do not seek this type of help, mostly because of the many negative judgments that have influenced us since our childhood. It is these vary experiences, along with our own perception of them, that has caused and exacerbated the very symptoms we seek help for. It has been my experience that this history needs to be revisited, reviewed, and re-addressed so that we can overcome many of the chronic conditions that affect far too many in this world. “There is no birth of consciousness without pain”, Carl Jung

As a therapist, I believe I can work with most situations because I am eager to learn from you, to research, and to problem solve with you for the best solutions regarding your current need for therapy.
