Geriatric and Seniors Therapists in Irvine, CA
Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, and trauma? Do you experience difficulties managing family and relationship issues? I believe that healing happens when we pay attention to all the parts that make us whole—our mind, body, and soul. The subconscious mind controls most of our reality and choices, so building awareness and active presence can improve the quality of daily living and assist in not only surviving but thriving through life. As an intuitive & holistic therapist, I will assist you in strengthening your inner psyche and developing new tools to manage negative feelings and thoughts.

Depression is a monster. In the majority of cases, anxiety co-exists with depression making it even more debilitating for the individual. While there may be similarities in stories, each person's experience is very unique. Get relief from these overwhelming emotions and develop better: self-understanding, coping skills, relationships, and create a higher quality of life. I've worked with people from a variety of employment settings who initially found it difficult to come to therapy but were so thankful that they did. I've seen lives completely turn around. It is work but Positive Change can occur. NEVER give up! Invest in yourself!

I believe that some of the important ingredients of therapy are trust, connection, genuineness and respectful dialogue. I believe in understanding the complexities of my clients lives and help them 'de-bug' themselves so that they can continue to be in thriving relationships. Healing can happen in all sorts of ways depending on my client's beliefs and I believe that talk therapy is not the only way. I stay curious about what method of healing best fits my clients and guide them in that direction.

Life can feel impossible to avoid struggling and we often don't feel we have the skills to cope successfully through. Unfortunately, sometimes we don't have all the resources we need for a given situation. Parts of us take on desperate roles trying to help us to survive. This might look like anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, and relationship/family issues. I aim to help you process unresolved issues and feelings and find solutions.

Childhood trauma can cripple us, it creates overpowering ‘intense’ emotions such as anxiety, depression, and anger when left unattended which begins to create physical symptoms to defend our bodies from the internal wounds. Has there ever been a time in your life where you have experienced this reaction? Are you experiencing these feelings based on current or past trauma from childhood, early teens, adolescence, adulthood, or as a senior? I aim to utilize a variety of actionable techniques to help reduce trauma related symptoms and make lasting changes in life.

When we are exposed to trauma at an early age, it can seriously impact how we feel about ourselves and our relationships with others. Trauma can also profoundly affect whether we feel this is a safe world and can contribute to depression, anxiety, and relational/familial issues. My practice is from a strengths-based, trauma-informed perspective with a non-judgmental framework. I aim to understand clients’ internal responses and to provide more options for emotional regulation and problem-solving.

Providing compassionate, culturally competent counseling to first responders and their families. As a retired third-generation firefighter from California, the fire service was a calling for me, and it became a fulfilling career and a wonderful life. However, as I progressed in my career, I witnessed firsthand the pain and suffering that many of my colleagues endured from exposure to workplace trauma as well as the physical demands of the profession. With the second half of my life, I wanted to make a difference by helping first responders live their best lives and support those who risk their lives to protect our communities.
