I CAN IMAGINE HOW OVERWHELMING IT MAY FEEL SCROLLING THROUGH THIS SITE. Finding the right therapist is the most critical part of the healing journey. I will provide you with an emotionally safe environment and collaborate with you on ways to navigate through your life's challenges. Together, we will identify your values in order to help you engage in life in more meaningful ways. I work with individuals, couples, and families. I believe that the first step towards developing healthy relationships with others is creating a healthy relationship with ourselves.
My therapy style is interactive and empathic.I tailor sessions to meet clients' unique therapeutic needs, as no two individuals are the same. I help clients step away from fear-based decisions and embrace their core- values. My goal is to help clients live a life that feels authentic and not one that just "looks good" on paper.
Asking for help may not be easy for you. I want to thank you for taking the first step towards your healing journey. As an adjunct faculty at Pepperdine University, I have learned that the best way to help others grow is through empathy and curiosity. I look forward to hearing from you.
