I am passionate about meeting you where you are with empathy and acceptance. I take a strengths-based approach and consider how your assets can be used to meet your treatment goals. Each person comes into this world with strengths and weaknesses, in therapy you can learn ways to use your strengths to support your weaknesses and address the impact of life adversities. In trauma and anxiety treatment we ask, "What happened?" rather than "What is wrong with you?" By stepping back from the symptoms, I consider dynamic factors that contribute to your unique history; as well as unseen biological, medical, cultural and systemic factors.
My expertise is with children and families; typically ages 5-25 years old. I partner with parents to address the individual and systemic patterns that brought you to therapy. I tailor my treatment approach to the developmental, emotional and behavioral needs of your family. I value collaborations with other providers.
I am licensed in California as a psychologist. I utilize research-based treatment that include cognitive and behavioral approaches. My wholistic approach includes nutrition, hormone levels, attachment and mindfulness based interventions. I offer psychological testing.
