Receiving therapy should no longer be a taboo. Confiding in others and receiving professional help is something we all do in many facets of our life. Most of us see a doctor or go get our car fixed when we have issues with our physical health or a tire is loose, so why not see a therapist to help improve our mental health? Therapy can also be preventative. Why wait before issues feel too far out of reach?

Do you feel like you are not at your best or perhaps that some days seem almost unbearable to face the world because you are too depressed, anxious, worried, fearful, overwhelmed with stress, or experiencing upsetting memories of past traumas? Perhaps your family is having difficulty with feeling connected, difficulty expressing love in a healthy manner, or dealing with life transitions? I want to help. I look to assist individuals and families with recovering and restoring themselves to their best, breaking free from old patterns and learning adaptive ways to express their feelings, emotions, and thoughts.

I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Clinical Supervisor at SD Relational Wellness. Additionally, I am the Director at The New Life Counseling Center in central San Diego. I work with multiple client populations including children, individuals, couples, families and groups.

I center my work around connecting the mind, body and soul to find peace and energetic balance with various holistic and somatic practices.

Utilizing a collaborative approach in understanding your heart and mind may help ease problem areas you are struggling with. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in children, adolescents, and families. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques unique to each individual.

Relational issues arise when we stop feeling security and trust in our relationships, and feel emotionally disconnected and unable to communicate our needs clearly to one another. As a marriage and family therapist, I am guided by the idea that the more effectively dependent we are on each other, the more independent, courageous and adventurous we become. I also believe that the quality of our relationships can deeply impact our mental and physical wellness in general. Humans are bonding, relational beings who need to feel secure and loved in their close relationships. We need to know that we matter to our loved ones.
