I enjoy working with clients looking for a unique and personalized approach to therapy. While I am well versed in traditional approaches, I also specialize in animal assisted therapy, art therapy, and play therapy. These tools allow me to tailor my therapeutic approach to the individual and take an integrative approach to counseling. Everyone is different, and it is important that we find an approach that is a good fit for you. I am a therapist at Acorn Center for Counseling Growth, & Healing LLC supervised by Rebecca Ahmadi LPC008726.

I embrace that therapy is not intended to be a life story, but rather a planned and timely experience for growth which allows my clients to gain skills that will help them succeed far after moving on from therapy.

People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don’t find myself saying, “soften the orange a bit on the right-hand corner. I don’t try and control a sunset.” I watch with awe as it unfolds (Rogers, 1980). In my therapeutic work over the past 15 years I have been uniquely fortunate to watch as potential and destiny unfolds for clients. In my clinical roles I fully espouse a person-centered strength-based focus and approach with clients, to the end of collaborative problem solving with your concerns and goals at the heart of our work together.

Greetings! If you are reading this, I am making the assumption that you have an interest in soliciting the services of someone to help you through life's many challenges. Allow me to be that person! EVERYONE can benefit from therapy-whether or not one chooses to pursue it, is simply a matter of personal preference. Relatable, empathetic, sincere, and inspiring are words past clients have used to describe my style of interacting. If counseling is something you feel would benefit you at this juncture in life, allow me NOT to lead you in this journey, but instead walk side by side. ***I am an In-Network provider for Kaiser Permanente

Do you see a pattern in your relationship, career, or life choices? Do you feel you are "going through the motions" and success - as you define it - continues to elude you? Perhaps fear, stress, anxiety, or depression are appearing? Are you feeling stuck in the human experience? Self-sabotaging tactics or traumatic experiences can make anyone feel like they are on the sidelines of life rather than being fully "on their game." Even the strongest of us all have a need for support. Not only is counseling my career, it is my passion and calling. I consider myself a bridge to helping people grow into the best version of themselves.

My ideal client is someone who feels stuck or out of balance, unsure of why things aren’t working the way they want in life. They might be struggling with stress, anxiety, or feeling disconnected, and they’re seeking clarity and a path forward. My goal is to truly get to know you, understand what’s going on beneath the surface, and work together to identify the changes you want to see in your life. I believe in being honest, down-to-earth, and genuine in our sessions. While we’ll tackle serious issues, I also believe in the healing power of humor, so expect some light moments along the way.

Life can be messy, unpredictable, and—let’s be real—sometimes a complete disaster. You might feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, stress, or past trauma, constantly battling self-doubt, expectations, or the fear of never being enough. Maybe relationships feel draining, or you struggle to set boundaries. You want clarity, direction, and real tools to move forward—not just someone nodding along. You need a therapist who gets it, challenges you, and helps you break old patterns so you can build a life that actually works for you.

Rational Emotive Behavior (REBT) Therapists

What should I expect from rational emotive behavior therapy?

The therapist will work with the individual to recognize rigid thought patterns that sabotage goals and set them back. The objective is to identify, challenge and reframe negative thoughts and enable an individual to understand that they possess control over their emotions and their behavior. This therapy often emphasizes the use of reasoning and self-direction.

Is rational emotive behavior therapy effective?

Rational emotive behavior therapy is evidence-based and is highly effective. It helps a person reframe self-defeating or catastrophizing thoughts and gives them tools to approach a range of circumstances they may encounter post-therapy as well. REBT can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioral habits.

When do I know if I need treatment with rational emotive behavior therapy?

If an individual’s mind is filled with rigid, unreasonable thoughts that dwell in negativity, they may feel stuck. A rational emotive behavior therapist can help a person examine and change their thinking patterns as well as their behavior. This concise and concrete therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

How long does rational emotive behavior therapy last?

REBT therapy treatment is short-term and focused in nature. It can last for a set number of sessions, ending within a few weeks or months. Like any type of therapy, however, sessions depend on the individual, as well as the severity of their condition or problem. The individual may wish to ask the therapist about typical progress and how long they expect treatment to take.
