ABOUT ME

ABOUT ME

I provide a space that is safe for all the feelings, thoughts, issues, and fears to be brought forth so that there can begin to be healing. I help clients decide on goals they'd like to achieve in treatment, and with compassionate suggestions, help them make the changes they are looking for.

I love to work with adolescents and moms of young children, but also see individuals with various needs. If you believe you may have formed some distortions in the ways you talk to yourself, I can help you discover a new way to see yourself and others, one that promotes self compassion, peace and joy. I believe we all need help sometimes to move towards a life that is full and thriving. Please call for a free consultation!

EXPERIENCE

Since earning my masters in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2008 I have worked with individuals in times of crisis due to mental health issues or substance abuse at a Behavioral Health Treatment Center.  I practiced as a grief counselor at San Diego Hospice and I co-facilitated anxiety support groups through the San Diego Phobia Foundation. I worked in private practice with individuals, couples, adolescents and children and I spent many years counseling adolescents in the foster system. Then I took time off to raise my children. The years I spent focusing on my family gave me such great time to gain new perspectives and ideas and I returned to the therapy room excited to help counsel, empower and give hope and healing to people in North County Coastal San Diego. I am thrilled at the idea of meeting you!
