First and foremost, congratulations on taking a step towards accomplishing your goals! Making the decision to work with a therapist to help manage any life stressor takes strength and commitment. When working with a new client, one of my primary objectives is to foster a welcoming and encouraging environment. I believe the best outcomes stem from an engaging, collaborative working relationship. Therapy is a very personal experience and I encourage my clients to be active participants in their therapeutic success.
Additionally, I believe that a client's experiences and circumstances are unique. I structure a treatment plan utilizing the most effective, evidence-based interventions available focused on your needs. From the initial meeting to the last session, I assess your progress based on direct feedback.
I am a psychologist working and residing in San Diego. My specialization and training includes: eating disorders, trauma/ PTSD, anxiety, depression, mood and personality disorders, health and wellness concerns among others. I feel very fortunate to have ample experience engaging with diverse clients with various concerns. Call for a free phone consultation!
