It is my honor to work with clients that are experiencing difficult life experiences. I provide counseling to children, adults and families. My areas of specialty include managing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression and relationship problems. I also specialize working with children and families that are affected by learning disorders (IEPS), behavior challenges, ADHD, Autism, Emotional Disturbance and other school related difficulties. My approach is to prioritize my clients' needs and assist them in identifying their strengths, power, purpose and resilience in order to overcome their stressors.
I gently offer guidance and facilitate solution finding, personal growth and healing for my clients. I am able to quickly build rapport and trust with clients of diverse ages, ethnic backgrounds and varied life experiences. I combine traditional and innovative treatment modalities to achieve optimal and effective treatment results.
Starting therapy takes courage but it's a well-worth investment in yourself. I invite you to reach out to me when you are ready to seek personal growth. I humbly look forward to the potential opportunity to collaboratively work with you. To schedule an appointment please call my direct office line at (760) 698-9613.
