It is my belief that anyone can experience an inner light of peace and embody love regardless of the many possibilities: past or present traumas, mood instability, depression, anxiety, shame, daily stress, circumstances, infidelity, relationship status, break-ups, financial strain, divorce, failure, faith crisis, unmet needs, and all the things in between. One must first be willing to claim the growth and change desired by first believing that it is possible to obtain and are worthy of receiving it. If this is you, then I believe I am a right fit for you - I am willing to believe with you.

My clients tend to have very diverse cultural backgrounds. They are dealing with trauma, depression/anxiety, old damaging beliefs and dysfunctional behavior. As a master therapist, I help them reclaim their lives with cutting edge brain re-training, more effective at creating permanent healing than talk therapy. By rewriting the brain's negative programs, we elicit emotional well-being, peace, joy and self-acceptance, all of which are already within you. I also work with mood disorders, relationship issues, addictions, sexual issues. I have a very high success rate and rapid results. Text me for more info: 831-888-6201.

All too often change occurs, it's inevitable, but not always expected nor welcome.. From small, situational dilemmas to larger, more complex personal or family concerns, therapy can be the change that brings about relief, insight and new solutions for dealing with these circumstances. Together, with my support and guidance, I hope we can begin to identify and develop the tools and resources needed to help you move toward the healing and growth you are seeking.

You deserve to live the highest quality of life you can. Often times we try to heal from both emotional and mental pain by seeking out external factors that are rarely in our control only to see minimally lasting results. My work with you would focus on learning to look inwardly for growth and healing. Understanding how your body and mind respond to emotional experiences can help you be in control regardless of the external factors. You have everything you need to heal; you are not "broken" nor do you need "fixing" sometimes we simply get lost along the way.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process between a therapist and a client. My goal is to create a safe environment where my clients can process thoughts and feelings to get a deeper and clearer understanding of underlying issues. The reality is that therapy is an uncomfortable and vulnerable process, but together we can work through difficult and often very private issues.

Divorce Therapists

How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?

Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?

There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?

When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
