NAVIGATE LIFE'S CHALLENGES WITH MORE EASE Therapy can help you rise above your challenges and start moving towards your ideal life with less less suffering and more fulfillment I've helped people struggling with anxiety, depression, and overwhelm find their way to feeling more calm and able to handle life's ups and downs. My clients discover that it's possible to manage their difficult feelings and be a more engaged friend, partner, and parent. You'll learn effective ways to manage stress and tools to cope with it and move through difficult life experiences. One of the most rewarding things about being a therapist is seeing my clients gain new insights and become empowered to make positive changes in their lives. Using Feedback Informed Treatment, I am committed to checking in with you as we go to ensure we're on track towards positive change. IS EMDR RIGHT FOR YOU? Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a type of therapy that helps you heal from emotional distress resulting from anything traumatic or disturbing that’s happened to you. EMDR is an evidenced-based treatment if you have unresolved trauma. However, it can also help you become more at peace with adverse experiences and troubling memories in general, so can even benefit people who don’t feel they have experienced significant trauma. MY JOURNEY TO BECOMING A THERAPIST I’m no different from the clients I see. Like everyone else, I've been through both wonderful and difficult experiences that have shaped who I am and how I help. With over 10 years of experiences, I've worked as a parenting hotline phone counselor and supervisor, parenting class facilitator, school-based therapist, and manager of a therapy program at a family service agency, all of which inform my work in private practice. MY PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND After many years working in technology I attended graduate school at the Wright Institute in Berkeley, CA where I received an MA in Counseling Psychology. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Clinical Supervisor in the state of California.
