Therapists in San Marcos, CA

I work with couples, individuals, and young adults, including those who struggle with relationship issues, mood instability, self-acceptance, LGBTQ+ identity, anxiety, and OCD, who want to create a more true and beautiful life. My therapeutic approach begins with a curiosity that looks deeply into the negative beliefs you hold about yourself that are limiting your life. Through self-compassion, I can help you establish a view of yourself in order to bring awareness to the way you interact in the world. With your newly established awareness and self-acceptance, you can live and love with an authentic sense of purpose and connection.

Therapy can be a journey of self discovery, healing, building relationships, and so much more. I am here to support you on whatever journey you are on.During sessions I create a safe space where you can feel supported and be able to be yourself. I believe that we all have strengths within us that can be used to help find balance in our lives. I will help you find coping skills that work for you and encourage new forms of self care. At the start of my career I earned a Bachelors degree in child development and family life education, and a Masters degree in Social Work with a concentration in mental health.
