I have been working in private practice with individuals, couples and families for 17 years as a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I graduated from Santa Clara University with a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology. Focus includes, depression, anxiety, marital issues, PTSD, and traumatic brain injury.
I use a variety of models to help each client be provided with individualized treatment, which includes emotionally Focused Therapy for couples and Structural Family Therapy to help families understand and shift dysfunctional patterns. My goal is to work as a team member to help individuals, couples and families build stronger emotional connections and create new ways to cope with conflict in a non-judgmental and supportive environment.
I take great care in providing a safe, warm and caring environment. I believe that lasting change comes from within a supportive, collaborative relationship. By focusing on clients’ strengths, exploring their relationships and empowering them to rewrite their narratives. I help them navigate challenges and create fulfilling, healthy lives.
