My area of expertise is romantic love and relational compatibility. In addition to helping clients cope with anxiety and depression, I help them avoid the relationship mistakes most people make and learn how to find and foster a successful relationship. I have been teaching seminars on love and marriage for 26 years. While my clients find my style sensitive and supportive, they also appreciate that I go beyond active listening and reflection and challenge them with questions that lead them to deeper levels of insight and awareness.

Are you feeling stuck, lost, determined to make a change but not sure where to start? Maybe you're struggling in a relationship, navigating a life transition, or suffering under the weight of trauma? It could be that loss or grief feels insurmountable or you’re walking through a painful faith transition? Whatever you're going through, you want to grow into the version of yourself that you have always hoped was buried inside somewhere. You want to uncover your own wisdom, restore a relationship that feels broken, find wholeness or maybe even feel joy again. I'd consider it an honor to walk alongside you as you take this step.

My wide range of experience provides me with the ability to approach many situations you may be facing with confidence and knowledge. I want to start where you are and I will respect your goals in the therapeutic process. I understand your need for confidentiality, privacy and trust.

It takes courage to face our problems/fears/ relationship issues/trauma and this is not always easy work, but I believe it is definitely worth it.
I sincerely believe in the power of truly being seen and understood by another human being. This is my top priority in the work I do. First and foremost I hope to hear about you and your experience, and understand where you're at in life. When we are seen by another with compassion, I believe it naturally opens up access to our own inner wisdom. I like to work in collaboration and alongside you in a way that honors your wisdom to make the right decisions that line up with your own values and beliefs. After working for over twenty years as nurse, I chose to become a therapist because I believe our mental health is so important!

I work with adults (age 18+) and couples residing in California. So many of us experience seasons of life feeling lost, disconnected, and helpless. I am here to help.

I'll treat your anxiety, depression, current & historical trauma, and even communication troubles between couples.
I use a CBT and DBT approach and include the Mind-Body connection. Sometimes we "feel" our anxiety, depression, trauma, etc... and that keeps us locked in the past or the future. I find if you can calm your body and your symptoms, exploring the cause is less of a chore. I started in Behavioral Therapy 14 years ago as a Drug and Alcohol Counselor.

I am an EMDR certified therapist, and have worked in Residential Hospital settings and Private Practice as a Clinician for several years, and received extensive knowledge in Eating Disorders, Postpartum, Abuse, Depression, Anxiety, Couples, Family Systems, Self- Esteem, Cultural Issues, and Trauma.
There is always hope! Our painful life experiences have a way of making us feeling exhausted and unworthy. We can lose sight of our dreams and our authentic path. Trying something new and opening up seems like the last thing we may want to do, but maybe it is exactly what we need. Spending quality caring time on ourselves with the support of a caring therapist can create healing and movement in our lives. We all need validating safe spaces to remind ourselves how valuable we are. We can't truly give to our loved ones unless we are giving to ourselves.

Focusing on goals helps highlight not only your vision for the relationship but also challenges for that vision.
Hi! I'm Dani, and I see couples. Whether you are doing the work of repairing, growing, or separating, couples counseling is a path to mutual understanding. For couples who would like to stay together, it’s worth reflecting on what brought you together in the first place. Things like how you met, what clicked, and why you stayed can inform what makes you hang in there now. I find that’s a nice place to start if you’re keeping the bond, sometimes even if you’re not. Wherever you are at in your dynamic, we’ll go into what you would like to see happen here.
