Psychotherapist
CA
Congratulations, you're on your way to taking the first steps to making a change in your life. Change can be scary, but you don't have to do it alone, and I'm here to help you begin the process, whether that is through a free consultation to see if we are a fit. My approach The treatment approaches I utilize to help my clients include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to understand and either accept or change your thinking, feelings, and actions. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is used to provide skills for emotional regulation. For my clients who have experienced trauma, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is another treatment that is considered only after a strong therapeutic foundation has been created. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from California State University, San Bernardino, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to support clients through these evidence-based therapies.
