Hello, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Southern California. During my 29 years of experience, I have worked with a diverse range of people aged 3t providing individual, child and family counseling. My therapeutic approach consists of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma focused, strength based, grief and loss, and Christian based counseling. I also enjoy working with families with issues terminal illnesses, blended families and phase of life issues. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is paramount for growth, meaning the relationship between therapist and client is of the utmost importance for success. I have been told that I have a gentle, soft demeanor that makes clients feel relaxed and easily engaged during sessions. By using self-reflection, one becomes more aware of thoughts, feelings and behaviors. My desire is to help you achieve your goals by exploring interventions you can use for a lifetime. Let's start this journey together. The youngest age I am open to treating is 3 years old.
