It is my practice to encourage each client to discover their own inner resources and strengths while gaining personal empowerment. Whether you seek recovery from trauma, depression or anxiety, I will provide you the tools and skills to enhance your self-esteem, develop relationships and establish healthy boundaries and communication. As you learn to cope with life transitions and changes, we will incorporate mindfulness-based techniques, and challenge maladaptive thoughts and beliefs by approaching solutions to engage stressful situations, you will reduce emotional suffering. I have been practicing in San Diego, CA for over 18 years working with people across the spectrum; however, now I primarily focus on working with adults over the age of 18 using a variety of modalities of therapy including ACT, CBT, CPT & EMDR, Motivational Interviewing and Psychodynamic therapies to help you meet your goals and reduce emotional suffering. I am licensed in California, Hawaii and Oregon.
