About

About Me

Are you struggling to manage your emotions and overcome daily challenges? If so, I have the professional and personal experience to support you. ​I specialize in engaging individuals through a variety of clinical interventions and cognitive-behavioral therapies. I received my master's degree in social work through California State University, Fullerton. I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR trained. 

Stressed out by relationships or parenting? Tired of trying the same parenting techniques and expecting different reactions from your children? I am an adoptive parent myself, so I can help with family functioning. I'm certified in Adoption Clinical Training and a Positive Discipline Certified Teaching Parent.

Through the use of appropriate therapeutic techniques, problem solving, and positive parenting interventions I creatively engage with clients to make life changes that enhance a mutually respectful, happy, and supportive family relationship.
