Great to meet you!

I am a Christian, Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of California with 7 years of clinical experience, and have been a practicing social worker for 20+ years. I am passionate about walking alongside women as they navigate life transitions, stress, emotional challenges, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, as well as memory loss/cognitive decline. I am also passionate about supporting women of color, creating a safe and affirming space for healing and growth. Please feel free to reach out to me at [email protected] regarding your needs and scheduling preferences. I am here, and available.

My approach to therapy

My warm and humorous, integrated approach to therapy draws upon therapeutic components found within Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused Therapy to support you in reaching your personal treatment goals. Taking the first step to sign up for or return to therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started in your journey of personal growth.

What you can expect from me

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Expect to grow at your own pace as you work towards goal attainment and your greatest vision of you. Feel free to reach out to me at [email protected].
