Zig Ziglar said "Don't expect everyone to understand your journey. Especially if they've never had to walk your path." In therapy you have the opportunity to address challenges and struggles while learning effective coping skills in a non-judging environment. I assist you by providing a non-biased perspective and together we develop goals that are reasonable and achievable. As a mental health professional, I have had the remarkable opportunity over the last 16 years to work with diverse populations and a wide range of clients which include infants, children, adolescents, adults, couples and families.
I specialize in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT); treating sexual abuse, physical abuse, PTSD, depression, anxiety and removal from birth parents/caregivers. I work from a Family Systems and Solution Focused therapeutic modality in treating children, adolescents, couples, families, and adults.
I provide Psychological Immigration Evaluations for client's who are seeking Asylum, U-Visa, Hardship and VAWA. I am a Facilitator for Prepare/Enrich pre-marital counseling and I work with a variety of Employment Assistance Programs (EAP). Furthermore, I currently am a Clinical member of the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists.

The theoretical orientation I enjoy working from is Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT). After your initial appointment, we will explore various coping strategies and skills to be used to help you manage symptoms and accomplish treatment goals. Through CBT, we have the opportunity to learn the impact our thoughts have on our feelings and behaviors while implementing healthy coping skills.
