Mental Wellness Specialties: Trauma and abuse
12 years offering treatment
I am licensed in California with 10 years of professional work experience as a therapist and over 40 years working in the mental health field in varied capacities from beginning as a mental health worker to later on doing case management work in a County Mental Health Outpatient Clinic. I worked earlier in my career in an acute in-patient setting for 4 years. I went back to school in my 50's to get my Master's Degree in Professional Counseling from National University in Fresno, California. My undergraduate degree was in Recreation Administration from Fresno State University. I have experience in helping clients with trauma and abuse, as most client's in the County Mental Health System unfortunately have trauma in their background. I use an eclectic therapy approach that is tailored to the individual client. I was the main facilitator for short term Dialectical Behavioral Therapy groups for several years in the county I worked for. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts, feelings, and topics of faith can be shared without fear of judgment. I retired from the County Mental Health system in June 2022. My goal now is to provide and integrate Christian faith into the therapy I provide. It is not mandatory that any client holds the same beliefs as myself, but I desire for individuals that desire faith based treatment have an alternative to secular, humanistic logic and wisdom. I do have experience and training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and I am very client centered and supportive. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

I focus on helping people reconnect with their inner resources, community & innate wisdom, and become more aligned with the relationships they desire and the dreams they hope for. I work with people to help separate themselves from beliefs and stories that are causing them to suffer. Together we do this by gaining insight into conditions and ideas that are overpowering them, & preventing them from the life and relationships they would like. My work with couples focuses on the problems that are preventing couples from their preferred relationship & understanding how they get pulled into these habitual ways of relating. I use an integrative approach to therapy, based on people’s needs & personality. My approach is warm, creative and intuitive. My preference is to not use labels to describe people’s experiences, but rather look at the entirety of people’s contexts & encourage them to see how they can use their own strengths & resources to help them improve their suffering. My own life & 15 years of experience in the entertainment industry have given me an intimate understanding of the challenges that artistic professionals, couples & parents face. I also have first-hand experience of potential stressors that present themselves when living in a culture & country different from the one you grew up in.
