EMDR Therapists in Arcadia, CA

I am a firm believer that I cannot do my clients’ work for them. It is a collaborative effort, in the best interest of the client, and with the client who is ready for change, and willing to do the work. Therapy is a commitment, a risk, and takes courage. Finding connections to our emotions and behaviors keeping us from living the life we want, gives us hope and new perspectives for positive change.

I work from an interpersonal frame of reference and use a variety of techniques including cognitive behavioral approaches in my work with adult individuals and with couples. I work with clients in identifying and changing patterns in their lives that no longer work for them in an effort to help them achieve greater happiness, peace, and balance in their professional and personal lives. I believe in people's ability to change and take charge of their own lives. I work interactively and supportively with clients to bring out their strengths and activate the healthiest parts of themselves to accomplish their goals.

Hello there! I am a EMDR and TRM-trained therapist and I greet you with gentleness and a smile.
