About my work
My Practice
In my private practice, I have had the privilege of working with individuals living with Trauma, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, Addictions, Dissociation, and Gender Identity Exploration, plus many more. Whether these are current or past issues you are looking to seek help with, I am eager to help you. We can do this together! I look forward and enjoy working with individuals virtually through telehealth.
I started my journey at Pepperdine University Graduate school of Education and Psychology pursuing my Master's degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am dually licensed as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) as well as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC).
I am trained in the Trauma Resiliency Model and EMDR.
My Treatment Focus
My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their own inner strengths. I have had success in achieving this with individuals by creating a neutral safe space, listening to their concerns, and customizing a treatment plan based on their needs and their own timeline. I take a humanistic perspective and look at treatment planning through a psychodynamic lens.
I do teach Master’s level psychology and I have taught theories of counseling and psychotherapy for many years, so I like to integrate theories, techniques and treatment modalities that are appropriate for each individual person. As a result, you will get a unique tailored treatment plan that is not cookie cutter. There is a lot of thought, care and effort that goes into our work. I use these techniques to help individuals in their own healing journeys. I am EMDR trained and trained in the Trauma Resiliency Model to effectively work with trauma when appropriate as well.
