I work with lots of clients that are struggling in their most important relationships, whether it's marriage or family. We sometimes feel stuck, or just plain exhausted in all our attempts to improve things alone. This is where a trusted helper can make a difference. I enjoy the process of helping couples and families understand the factors that are at play in their relationships and how to improve them.

Please note: I am providing telehealth only at this time. Say no and mean it! Learn to believe in yourself! Our own thoughts/beliefs can cause us to feel ineffective or incapable. Struggling with anxiety, anger or family of origin difficulties(controlling or distant parents), low self esteem/self worth and toxic family systems can affect our ability to see ourselves realistically or be self critical. This can negatively affect our mood. You can learn to control anxiety and thoughts with techniques, practice, changing your self talk and addressing beliefs about yourself.

If you are feeling stuck, grieving, going through a change and/or confused, it can help to talk with someone who is objective, yet supportive. At times, transitions bring us to a critical juncture or a cross road. Sometimes, it is a shift and at other points it is a moment of truth. Whatever the case, you are not alone and it is possible to develop a sense of effectiveness. Although outcomes vary, the objective is peace of mind. Helping people feel better comes with over 35 years experience. All sevices are provided in Spanish and English.

I engage well with clients from varying ethnicities, and clients that might describe their experience as unique. I also have a number of celebrity clients, pastors and wives, business owners and couples who seek someone to be honest and direct. I don't believe in wasting time in session and "running the clock." Our experience will be intense, refreshing, and reflective. If you are seeking out a therapist that others can identify your change and development, then if schedule permits, perhaps we will have a spirit experience in session.

You realize you need help with the distress and anxiety you feel in some of your relationships. You are not feeling like yourself and wonder how you got to this point. Are you thinking “I need something to change. I just need some direction and support”? Maybe you're not sure what needs changing or even how to go about it. What you do know is that you are exhausted – tired of thinking about all the things you could do or should do. And while you go through a day, a week, a year “doing” what you can, you know there is more to you than this. You are not alone. With support and guidance, you can make changes to get better.

Each day you start the same routine, and think is this all there is to my life? You are overwhelmed and wonder if you are broken beyond repair, or destined to live in this chaos. Life is full of unexpected twists and turns, and everyone at one point in their lives will have to make tough decisions, deal with crisis, or struggle in some way. It is through these hard things that we can learn to cope, grow and understand our life journey. Reaching out for help is one of the most difficult things, so congratulations on taking the first step to better yourself. We are all works in progress, constantly changing and growing.

I assist clients dealing with addiction and the related co-occurring issues (anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD/ADD, stress, bipolar, schizo-affective, schizophrenic, etc.). All of my clients have experienced some type of trauma, PTSD, childhood emotional neglect, intergenerational family issues, spiritual emergency / psychosis, etc., and addiction has been the result. Clients who have been impacted are in my estimation actually highly sensitive people and highly spiritual people. I now offer an 11-Session Emotional Integration Training program that teaches you to manage your emotions in a skillful way putting the tools in your hands.
