- LCSW
I am an Licensed Clinical Social Worker , licensed in California with over 10 years of experience working as a mental health therapist in a forensic setting. As a result of this experience I have learned that therapy requires a mutual respect, a non-judgmental attitude and the development of a strong rapport between therapist and client is key to a successful outcome. After this rapport is built, I can walk alongside you through your journey of change by helping you to clarify your goals and develop the skills you need to make lasting and positive changes. To assist you in reaching these goals I will be using one of these modalities, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT, solution based Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT) and the Better Lives model for life goal development. An integrated approach can also be utilized as needed. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, anger issues, impulse control issues, relationship issues, sexual addictions, loss and grief and social/communication issues. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, strength based, supportive, and client focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. My goal as a therapist is to help you meet your goals and support you make needed changes to meet your desired growth. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have the strengths needed to assist you in meeting your goals and overcoming the challenges you face, It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you on this journey.
I look forward to working with you in reaching for your dreams and goals!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
