Therapists in Kern County, CA

Congratulations on taking the first step towards healing! I believe that our primary purpose in life is to strive to be the best version of ourselves that we can possibly be - regardless of our starting point. But finding our path cannot happen without taking the courageous first steps of self-examination and exploration. I provide individual and family therapy, as well as marriage and couples counseling, specializing in conflict management and treating clients with chemical dependency and other addictive patterns of behavior. People experiencing problems with stress, depression, anxiety, grief and loss and other life struggles also seek my help.

I believe that every individual has it within themselves to overcome the majority of their struggles, they just need some help. My job as your therapist is to foster this healing process. I will not tell you what you must do, but I will assist you in finding the solution for yourself. As the old saying goes, "you can't see the forest through the trees", I will help you to see the forest.

Hello. Welcome to my section. I have enjoyed helping individuals and families for many years in the sunny Antelope Valley. I work with people who are struggling with mood swings, anxieties or who are just feeling stuck. I use many treatment modalities such as assessment testing, relaxation techniques (and hypnotherapy), family systems, behavioral strategies and cognitive behavioral therapies (based on each client's need). To find your "out-of-pocket" share please contact your insurance company.

I love working with people struggeling with inner conflict and people looking for answers. This group includes families, couples, individuals, and teens. I have found people have their own answers; my role is to be a catalyst. My approach is client centered, we will together discover what you need and how to get there. My training includes family systems, brief therapy, and hypnosis and I use an eclectic combination of therapy modalities indicated by your needs and your personality. I am a strong proponent of natural methods of healing. I want you to remember you have the answers because you know best what it is that you want.

"It's never to late to have a happy childhood" This quote embodies the core belief and hope that I bring into my practice. Most people bring wounds from childhood into their adulthood. These wounds show up in their lives as depression, anxiety, low-self-esteem and unhealthy relationships. In therapy, you can become aware of those wound and how they limit your life today, grieve your losses and learn healthier ways to get those childhood needs met. As this healing occurs, we can explore ways to live life more fully and joyfully and to thrive rather than just survive.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families in an interactive, compassionate atmosphere. Healing calls for a guide, and when searching for solutions and resolutions, it is important to seek a therapist with whom you can relate. This relationship can enable you to focus energies while juggling with stressful situations. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to create a highly individualized approach tailored to each client's specific needs. With compassion and understanding, I work with clients to build on their innate strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing.

Generally, I treat groups, couples, and individuals--21 years of age or older. I am best suited to treat depression, anxiety, bipolar, alcohol/drug issues, personality disorders, anger, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress disorder, adjustment disorders, grief/loss, employment difficulties, military/veterans, spiritual issues, and relationship problems.
