Inland Empire Health Plan Therapists in Alta Loma, CA

It is my experience that the best results come when a therapist and client work as a team, focusing on specific goals. It is the therapeutic alliance that yields healing and movement towards accomplishing goals. It is essential that you find a psychotherapist with whom you feel comfortable discussing the important details of your life.

Life can bring about seasons of change and unexpected challenge.

Experiencing stress and finding it hard to cope? You are not alone. As a therapist I consider my role as a guide who partners with you in reaching your goals and promoting healthy intrapersonal and interpersonal awareness. Congratulations!

One of my joys in life is making a positive difference in my client's lives. Maybe you’ve tried everything; talking to friends/family, reading self-help books, ignoring the problem hoping it will go away, or just accepting how things are and yet you are feeling unhappy and stuck. I believe there is hope for you, a life filled with love, fulfillment and fun. I've had a variety of life experiences (good, not so good) that's given me wisdom and insights about people/life. I work with couples, women's and men's problems, trauma, codependency, ADHD. I am here to travel with you on your journey of growth with understanding and compassion.

Past clients say that my warm, empathic and friendly demeanor drew them in. I am genuine and I am mindful of individual differences. You and I will customize a treatment approach and If we decide (together) that medication may be helpful (short term or long), then a referral in-house can be made. Curious? Let’s connect to explore what positive change looks like. Brighter days are ahead! : )
