Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Colton, CA

If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or unsure where to go next, you’re in the right place. Graduated Pepperdine University with Masters in Clinical Psychology in 2007. I’ve spent many years helping adults from all walks of life navigate anxiety, depression, panic attacks, trauma, relationship stress, life transitions, and identity questions. I especially enjoy working with men (including those who are completely new to therapy), as well as women wanting help understanding the important relationships in their lives. Whether you're processing past experiences, facing grief or loss, adjusting to a new stage of life, or trying to better understand who you are and where you belong — I’m here to help.

My goal with therapy is to provide a safe and open space to process and prioritize a growth mindset. I tailor my therapeutic approach to best match the needs of the client and truly believe in promoting acceptance. Some modalities I have experience with and may incorporate into therapy are Acceptance Compassion Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused, Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Here-and-now Counseling, Trauma-Informed, and Holistic. I have a passion for working with individuals who are looking to unpack complex emotions and experiences that have shaped their understanding of the world.

I am a licensed therapist who has been working in the field since 2014 with diverse individuals in different settings. I attended California State Polytechnic University for my Bachelors Degree in Psychology and the University of Southern California for my Masters in Social Work. I specialize in working with individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, trauma, women's issues and grief and loss issues. On a personal note, I love to hike, cook and watch movies.
