I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 25 years of licensed experience.
I am a member in good standing with CAMFT, ICEEFT and NCCEFT, have advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, and am involved in ongoing consultation and education in this model. My approach is eclectic, which means that I utilize many different techniques and draw from a number of different therapy models as well as recovery teachings.
I am dedicated to understanding and helping clients grow in their relationships with self and others. I help clients gain strength in greater mindfulness, alternative ways of viewing challenges and in creating a stronger anchoring and appreciation for their own value and uniqueness.
I have a general practice, meaning that I am comfortable working with a variety of presenting issues. I am deeply appreciative of the opportunity to work with diverse populations and work hard to be curious and humble in learning about the experiences that shape clients lives. I look forward to speaking with you and the possibility of our work together.
I work with individual adults and couples, and can offer therapy services in English and Spanish (as a non-native speaker).
