Life is full of changes; we can count on this! During these ever changing times and seasons in living, our lives can be thrown off balance! Counseling support provides a special ‘time out’ where you can identify your current needs and address current symptoms and issues with a compassionate and caring therapist.

I am a licensed Marriage, Family Therapist and Certified Grief Educator in California with 40 years of continuous work in this field.

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.

Using a Problem-Solution & HOPE filled focus.

I have had the privilege and joy of seeing individuals learn, grow and heal from grief & loss, trauma and various relationship and life issues with increased confidence.

I have discovered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Art Therapy and Brainspotting to be powerful tools for effective healing and overall wellness.

Your treatment plan is designed to meet your individual needs.

Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I am here for YOU!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
