My Approach to Helping
Click the link to call or email me if you are ready to make changes in your life for personal growth or to make your relationships better. Change can be challenging, but small steps toward goals make it easier. Are you experiencing a stressful situation right now in your life where you feel you just want to talk to someone? Are you fighting a lot with a loved one or having a hard time after a break-up? Do you have frustrations with coworkers or trouble communicating with family members? As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Board Certified Behavior Analyst practicing in the Mission Viejo area, I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families.
Whether it's difficulty getting along with a loved one, financial worries, problems with co-workers, or emotional ups and downs, most people have something in their lives that they want to work on or change. This works best with active participation from you as well as a trusting relationship with me. People say that I am very easy to talk to and that they feel safe when sharing with me. I love being able to provide support and watch people strive to meet their goals using the action-based strategies given during sessions.
I offer assistance with relationships of any kind (spouse, boyfriend/girlfriend, siblings, roommates, coworkers, parent-child, family). My behavioral background has given me the experience of teaching parenting skills and coping skills for difficulties in all kinds of relationships.
