Therapists in San Bernardino County, CA

My primary treatment modality with most patients is to work with their thinking and their actions, a cognitive-behavioral approach. Anxiety disorders, chronic worry and low self-esteem issues are my specialties. I also work with couples in an educational format to learn effective means of communicating and problem solving.

Looking at life meaning/purpose and goals and values under girds each patient’s treatment as well.

Making the decision to call a therapist is scary for most of us. It is usually at a time when we feel vulnerable or things have reached a crisis point. I can help give you objective feedback so that you can understand and make sense of your thoughts and feelings. In therapy you will learn new coping skills that you can use, not just in this incident, but in future ones. You don't have to be alone as you try and figure things out. I believe I can help.

For over 20 years as a psychologist I have helped people struggling with a variety of issues including life transitions, relationship challenges, work stress, and recovery from anxiety and depression. My approach is two-fold. I want to address the specific issues that have led you to therapy at this time of your life, and I will use therapeutic approaches that are compatible with your unique personality, problems and learning style. I believe that everyone has the power to reexamine and alter situations and tensions in their lives. Clients describe my approach as caring and compassionate but at the same time straight forward.

How do we break the spell of trauma? Shame, internalized gaslighting, trust issues, addictions and all the rest. How do we break free? The funny answer is not by fighting them as enemies. But by befriending them. Once we befriend them, they lose their power over us. But how do we befriend an enemy that lives in our Unconscious? Dreams, art, play, and imagination are all natives of this realm. so they are perfect guides through our underworld of rich personal symbolism to befriend shadow elements and integrate repressed capacities, replenishing vitality. Fun breaks the spell.
