Congratulations on your decision to explore options for personal support and growth. The choice to begin psychotherapy services can involve extending a great deal of trust in someone you are meeting for the first time. I value and honor your extension of trust and thank you in advance for your interest in reading my bio. In 2004 I became a CA Licensed Psychologist. Service interventions utilized focus on various forms of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and trauma treatment as nationally certified Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy TF-CBT therapist. I graduated from an APA accredited graduate program, an APA accredited internship, and an APPIC accredited fellowship at Children's Hospital of Orange County. Additionally, almost half of my work schedule is devoted to psychoeducational, psychological, and neurodevelopmental testing services. I look forward to meeting you and discussing your plans for beginning your self-care journey.
