Hello. My name is Penny, and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the State of California. I am here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and confidentiality. In our sessions, you’ll find a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings. I value the courage it takes to be vulnerable and I ensure my clients feel comfortable sharing their experiences. Together, we’ll work to uncover insights and develop strategies tailored to you. Your well-being is my top priority, and I’m committed to building a trusting, collaborative relationship.
I offer personalized therapy for anger management, anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, relationship issues, and family conflict. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. I work with adults, adolescents, teens, and couples; and I offer a compassionate and client-centered approach.
I focus on strengths and provide a safe, supportive space for clients to explore feelings, develop coping skills, and achieve their goals. I am here to support your journey to well-being; and I offer 15-minute phone or video consultations to get started. Initial appointments are typically scheduled within 1-2 weeks, or sooner if you urgently need support.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I use an eclectic range of modalities in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
